Just added this Mercury Dime Variety to my Variety Showcase......

This is a very nice example of the 1937 DDO Die-1 in a PCGS66FB OGH that I found in the wild on Ebay. Doubling is evident on all 4 digits of the date. Thanks for looking and comments always welcome.

    beautiful mercury but I think the doubling is really minor. Are you sending it to pcgs for attribution?

    Having taken a second look at your pics the doubling on the date is impressive.

    No...it's not a variety that PCGS does. I just have a sticker on it with the CONECA # on it. I collect all Mercury's by CONECA #.
