1942/1 Mercury Dime PCGS-MS66 Up For Viewing

wondercoin

I posted scans of the 1942/1 Mercury in PCGS-MS66 I recently acquired in my museum of coins on my site (www.wondercoin.com). This piece could be one of the highest quality 42/1 coins in existence, although no doubt the NGC-MS68 specimen out there is probably a bit nicer. But, this coin really has great appeal. No sales pitch here, as the coin has already been placed - just sharing pictures Wondercoin.

probably a bit nicer? You got that PCGS fish hook hanging out of your cheek in a bad way.

Mike: I think this coin is real nice, especially the 99.5% FB (which does not come out in the scan)! Can someone put it on this thread please? Wondercoin.

Here's a pic of the reverse.

Is that coin blue or is it the photo that makes it look blue?

I think it's the toning.

It is indeed a nice 1942/1 dime. The MS-68 dime blows it away but that other coin is unbelievable.
The toning on the reverse is a positive and the obverse, a neutral.
