GreySheet Price for 1942/1 Mercury Dime?

moosesr

Could someone give me the GreySheet bid and ask for 1942/1 and 1942/1-D mercury dimes in F to AU? These coins seem to be going up in value lately and I have decided to buy one before they get even more expensive.

Thanks, Charlie

1942/1 F= 385/420 VF=440/480 Xf=525/575 AU=850/950
1942/1 d F=310/345 VF=325/360 XF=420/460 AU=650/700


If you have not noticed, just recently the price of the p mint has steadily risen past the d and surpassed it. If you remember for years the d has always been slightly more than the p mint.

The p mint has always been more recognizable than the d mint version and a lot of coin albums only have a slot for the p mint version. IMO, I belive the price correction is due to the large number of collectors assembling sets based on the above????

Charlie:
The greysheet has no relevance in my mind to a key date that is highly sought after such as either 42/1 example. Expect to pay around $500 for a nice XF. Please get one certified by one of the big three.
