64+ no fb. Nice luster, few dings. Very nice Merc.
64 and great eye appeal!
Nice coin .... 65
Nice coin!
I would grade it "pretty nice"!
65
Slider au58 or ms62/63
64 no bands
A very nice dime but will go AU58. But I'm kind of nuts as well.
Hoard the keys.
I see a nice looking Merc. If it weren't for the marks in the field between the back of Liberty's head the Y I'd say 65. I'm at a 64 on this one.
I like the luster on it, I'm guessing MS64.

MS63m close to, but no FB.
MS64...
Not sure about the scuff marks on her nose and eye. I can see shadows past her nose and some on the lettering, looks a little like doubling. I will say around 63. Nice!

between 58 and 64. nice look to her
MS64.... the center bands look compromised.... overall, a nice looking Merc. Cheers, RickO
I agree. It's a real nice strike for a Branch Mint coin during that period.

@FadeToBlack FB are uber-rare on 19-S and 19-D. 64+.
I agree with FTB. 64+

A lot of you got the same grade that PCGS gave it years ago. A few thought as I do....that it should be 65. One even said 66. The bands are real nice for a 19-S but not complete. Thanks for playing....I may resubmit some day to see.
It's a great coin. You have some fantastic Mercury Dimes!
I just added some more today (pics) if you want to see the whole set here is a link.

If the grade don't fit than you must resubmit!
I think it's a great looking dime but a 64 grade seems a bit much to me. I think the rev is a 64 or maybe even a bit better from the obv isn't, IMO. Maybe it's the picture, but the actual date looks unusually weak to me.
With all of the talk about gradeflation and PCGS tightening standards, this may not be the best time to resubmit. 64 is a good grade, may be best left alone. At 64 it may sticker anyway.
