- Extraordinary Gem Full Bands 1955-D Dime
None Graded Finer by PCGS
1955-D Roosevelt Dime. MS-68 FB (PCGS).
Well blended toning in copper-rose, powder-blue and pale gold colors is seen both sides of this vivid Superb Gem. The underlying luster is fully frosted and intense, and the surfaces are as pristine as the day the coin emerged from the press.
The Denver Mint struck 13,959,000 dimes in 1955. At the time, collecting coins by roll was popular among collectors and quite a few rolls of this issue were soon removed from circulation. This created an ample supply of Mint State specimens, including some with downright exquisite toning, as here. The challenge of locating a striking Gem example is further compounded by the fact that the bands on the torch on the reverse are sometimes rather weak and poorly defined. With its combination of delicate toning, bold strike, and overall impressive eye appeal, this specimen is certain to attract spirited bidding when it crosses the auction block.
Estimate: $5,000 - $7,000.
Provenance: From the D. Brent Pogue Collection. Earlier, from our sale of the Just Having Fun Collection, March 2011 Baltimore Auction, lot 1526.
PCGS Population: 3; 0 finer in any category.
