- 1917-D Mercury Dime. MS-65 FB (NGC). A mottled patina of champagne-pink, midnight blue and olive-gold blankets both sides, with a splash of particularly deep color just above center on the reverse. Full satin to softly frosted luster with an impressively sharp strike. More than 9.4 millions examples of the 1917-D were struck, which was dramatically lower than the output of dimes from either the Philadelphia (55.2 million) or San Francisco (27.3 million) mints that year. However, it represents a sharp increase in mintage when compared to the quantity struck in Denver the prior year (264,000), which created the famous 20th century rarity of the 1916-D issue. The 1917-D is scarce in Mint State and true Gem examples with Full Bands definition, as here, are rare. NGC Census: 19; 8 finer in this category (MS-67 FB finest). PCGS# 4913. NGC ID: 23H3.
