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.

Just sayin' -- these are superlative pictures, of very nice coins. Judging only from the reverses, these would be a pleasure to own.
OK, not FB on the OP's coin: WHY?
NOT EVEN CLOSE.
I see cuts in the top and middle bands
no it is not in my opinion
I'm surprised it wasn't melted for bullion.
I mean.... sheeeeezzee.

The hits just left of center plus the weakness at the far left. How"s that?
Ken
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?
My comment referred to judging coins by minutiae.
Full steps
Full bands

Nope, not FSB/FB.
