  • I'd hazard a guess of 63-FB, but I'm always wrong.

    Looks 63FB to me also and the 10 bucks is right on the money price wise. You might try dealing a little on the common dates though. Maybe find 3 or 4 then come up with a package deal for the group.

    Two Dogs I see your from Arizona, Im from Glendale down in the valley, have you ever gone to the Camelback Collectors Club monthly show at the Elks in Scottsdale?
  • FullHorn,

    I have stayed away from the valley since 1984. Back in those days, if you walked down the street, they only threw bottles at you from passing cars.

    I lived on Grand Ave, above Camelback. Nice neighborhood. (Not.)

    I understand exactly what you mean image
  • Very nice dime!

    It could push 64FB, the only thing is the letters in "states".

    Beautiful, just beautiful!

    Nice color. I'm with the 63FB crowd. The marks on the cheek will keep it from going higher.

    Great job on the photo!

    64 FSB. The 43D is the most common date in the series , particullarly in full bands and with blazing lustre and well struck.

    Too much activity in the fields both the obvese and reverse in addition to the facial and neck scuffing.

    Nice dime, gotta love Mercs. I agree that $10 is right on.
    "Lenin is certainly right. There is no subtler or more severe means of overturning the existing basis of society(destroy capitalism) than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and it does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose."
    John Marnard Keynes, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, 1920, page 235ff
  • Here's why I said I'm always wrong. I was a grade off on this one. I'm zip for two on Winged Liberties now at PCGS.
