What a way to end the year (read this)

I have been working on my Mercury dime set for years and still working on this set.
It has been over 4 years since I have been able to fill a hole and let me tell you this.
I felt like a kid filling a hole in a set. What a feeling, I feel so much like a kid tonight.
Again Thanks to both VAM44 and My Wife.
Holy Cow Batman I feel great!

Congrats. Hard to find variety or a tough date?
Just so you don't have to look it up
ADDED 1926-S MS63FB
upgraded 1945-D MS67FB
26-S. Tough date.
I have a set of VG-F12 Mercs pulled from circulation as a child. It was always hard to find "S" coins on the east coast where I grew up, and I never did find one of those.
I know you're thrilled. Congrats!
Here's a warning parable for coin collectors...
Congrats. Good for you!
"Jesus died for you and for me, Thank you,Jesus"!!!
--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.What a great way to finish off the year, or the last 4 years! Congrats!
After a fruitful 2015, I wasn't able to fill any holes in 2016 so had to add to other collections.
Don't know all the details but it sounds like you've got a terrific wife. Congratulations.
Big congrats on your 26s!!
So tough to find in fb.
I gotta see some pics of your set

Well done, congrats! In MS FB, the 1926-S is the TRUE KEY to the series and is a real value buy in comparison to the 16-D. Nice 63FB-65FB examples are tough to find and exactly where I would set my sights. I did all the research and posted it in June of 2012. Feel free to check it out here:

Looking for Top Pop Mercury Dime Varieties & High Grade Mercury Dime Toners.
Keyman that was informative.
Very good reading
It is really satisfying to find something that you have been searching for, especially in numismatics!

Pat, I'm happy for you!!!
you were perhaps my first Forum contact when I joined around 2002. I remember trying to meet you and driving from Cleveland to Pittsburgh to attend a show.......................only to discover that you were at Brookpark!! that was back when the forum seemed to be full of guys talking about "Fishing Lures" and I was really confused. we don't seem to hear much about Mercs anymore.
post a picture if you can, or even a link to your fine set.
Congratulations.... always great to get those 'special' coins.....Cheers, RickO
Awesome!
That's great!

A great series, and achievable without breaking the bank for most.
I can just imagine how happy you are to get two upgrades for that great set. Congrats!
New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.
Thank you Kranky
For all who haven't meet Kranky you are missing meeting a wound earful person!
