The 7's came too a New Home Yesterday. Pictures may be a little small but what do you want at 2:44 AM ?
All FB coins but the 27S does not look like it because of a Scratch/ Smudge right over the Middle Band on the Slab. Some People must treat the Slab Mercs like they are Lincolns or Type coins. Just throwing them anywhere thus creating Scratches/ Smudges on the Slab. Shame on those people, Merc's should be held in Higher Esteem than that.
Guess the Grades if you care too. No Cheating by going to the Set though. Also You White Coin guys should like these.

All 3 are great looking coins. I haven't checked your set yet, but knowing what you had before, I'd guess them to be 65,64,66 (all FB).
Congrats on some neat additions to your set.

P.S.: I must say that I wish you would keep your coins off of these boards. These boards are designed for whining and controversy, flaming and trolling, not showing off beautiful Mercs.
That 37 is a beauty,66,17 looks to be 65,and the 27 64;all fb?.Al
Heck for a while I was thinking of Mailing a Dime around to see how everyone grades. By what I have seen here this is not needed at all. You Guys are Good !!!!! Did you Cheat and go to the Set ??

Nice coins... I looked at your set earlier when I was playing with the guess the grade on my 18.

Now what about dem grades?
2. MS-65FB or MS-64....
3. MS-66FBL its a beaut
I was 2 late
Came in too late to get to play the guess the grade, so I'm only here to tell Ken congrats. Great 37-S, that is at the top of my most wanted list along with the 39-S. And I'm sure glad you got the upgrade on the 17-P
What has happened in the Mecr registry since Friday evening? I registered two new dimes to my set Friday evening, and moved up to #22 , then when I logged on tonight, I'm at # 21. Who dropped out? I don't want to move up this way!
I finally received my 31-D 65FB from Whitlow, thanks for the help and advice Dennis, a really nice dime. Also registered a really nice 17-P in 64FB. Have 3 more new ladies on the way, 44-S in 66FB which is an upgrade, 34-P in 66FB, and another that I cannot talk about for a couple of weeks per my agreement with the seller, but it's a good mid 20's "D" in 64FB
BTW, I'm knocking on the door of the 1st page now! Might be knocking for a while. as there is a big jump between me and # 20. I'd just like to be able to see the porch where the "big dogs" are!!!

BTW, a mighty fine trio you have there.
You heathernistic fish lure collector!! Those are very pretty dimes. And the Merc is my favorite Dime of all. I like the way they flash when a nice Brown Trout is about to strike. Nice coins. mdwoods
We'll use our hands and hearts and if we must we'll use our heads.

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!
