    IMHO, no. There is not a clear and distinct separation.i

    I would say no from the picture.

    Albert Einstein himself stated "I'm not an atheist, and I don't think I can call myself a pantheist ... I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with fates and actions of human beings".

    Just sayin' -- these are superlative pictures, of very nice coins. Judging only from the reverses, these would be a pleasure to own. :smile:

    OK, not FB on the OP's coin: WHY?

  • DIMEMANDIMEMAN Posts: 22,403 ✭✭✭✭✭

    NOT EVEN CLOSE.

  • chumleychumley Posts: 2,305 ✭✭✭✭

    I see cuts in the top and middle bands

  • Coin FinderCoin Finder Posts: 7,291 ✭✭✭✭✭

    no it is not in my opinion

  • topstuftopstuf Posts: 14,803 ✭✭✭✭✭

    The hits just left of center plus the weakness at the far left. How"s that?

    So I'm a fool for asking a question? I guess we aren't all knowing like you.

    Yes. The hits across the two bands. Did you guess that @ajaan?

  • topstuftopstuf Posts: 14,803 ✭✭✭✭✭

    My comment referred to judging coins by minutiae.
    Full steps
    Full bands
    Full bells
    Full heads

    Full of it.
    When I started collecting that dime was a ...gem!

    Not FSB... middle and top bands are compromised. Cheers, RickO

  • LindeDadLindeDad Posts: 18,766 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Only middle band is graded at PCGS.

  • RogerBRogerB Posts: 8,852 ✭✭✭✭✭

    If you have to ask, then the answer is "No."

  • Nope, not FSB/FB.

    Center band, all the way on the left is not distinct.

    I agree. Unless this has changed.

    Full Bands
    Mercury Head Dimes: The central bands on the fasces on the reverse should be completely separated from left to right, without any breaks, marks or gaps. Note: PCGS may designate in grades of 60 and higher.

  • ajaanajaan Posts: 17,505 ✭✭✭✭✭

    OK, thanks. No FSB, I get it.
