1944-S 10C PCGS-MS66 Benson. If the whole roll is PCGS, then its 3 down and 47 to go. Goal:Complet

Just won another one on Ebay. This is getting to be fun. I requested the Benson catalog from the Goldbergs. This is my third 44-S, so if there are 50 dimes in a roll, thats 3 down in my collection and 47 to go. I can see them now in an Eagle slab album with a label on the outer binder:

- PCGS Benson 1944-S roll. Mercury dimes. range: MS65-68 -


It would be an interesting goal and one that would take years to accomplish.
As anal as I am, it just might be worth thinking about. Your thoughts?

Oh, here is the Benson I won today from Jbsteven:1944-S 10c PCGS-MS66 Benson

Are you going to corner the market on 1944-s dimes the way Russ has cornered the market on AH halves?

I only wish!

I am considering it for ms68 no band PCGS Mercs

got 9 and counting out of 92 graded. 36 are from the same year (got 3 of those).

is this considered hijacking a thread?

Go for it, Brian! That would be a MONSTER accomplishment!

Brian,

You obviously need a coach to keep you focused! You are going off on tangents most people have never even thought of. Are you one of those creative sorts? They are wired a little differently you know. Rather than chasing the other 47 dimes in that roll, "I" would be chasing hole fillers and upgrades. That is me. Brian, if it winds your clock, and makes you happy, then go for it! It would be a unique accomplishment to say the least!

Regards,

Wayne

Yes, its true, I enjoy collecting tangents within a series. This is the case particularly since I have three sets of Mercs. This would be an esoteric goal, and a fun one at that.

Baley

good luck! you'll get no competition from me for the rest of the roll!

Thanks Baley:
Somehow I didn't think you were in the high bidding!
