    Not mine but I like this titanium piece:

    WOW! If that were mine, it would certainly be a favorite! Thanks for posting that in here. I missed that auction last year. Very cool!

    I just posted my favorite Mercury Dime. I really like all the colors hidden within it.

    Nice ones @baseballjeff and @Twobitcollector :)

    Jeff, I looked at the larger images of it and saw the little splashes of color. Pretty cool.

    @MercuryBen Those are all fantastic! I think any Mercs from your collection are worthy of this thread. Thanks for posting! B)

    @UltraHighRelief That's a very nice example. :)

    I have not been bumping this thread lately but hope to in a couple of months after my next submission with attributions handled etc. Some Top Pop Fun!

    @robec Those are just beautiful! You and Ben have nothing but great examples! I hope you are only stopping for today maybe. You could easily post every Merc in your collection. Thanks for posting.

    Gold CAC, been in the Rattler 30+ years.

    Nice! I think it is safe to say that is NOT a MS66 by today's standards. B)

    The pictures really don't do it justice. To me, it's a solid 67+ at least.

    Now listen boy, I'm tryin' to teach you sumthin' . . . . that ain't an optical illusion, it only looks like an optical illusion.

    Yup, that sounds like a safe estimate.

    Following. My sentimental 1944 Liberty is in the grading stage at PCGS.

    +1! But am I a snob if I say I only like them with full bands?

    That was a great find! I'm still looking for one.

    Trying to find a 1926 - S with full bands is hard!

    Not really too hard, it just takes a little patience. If you want to find a Mint State FB 1926-S with a CAC sticker then you will have a challenge. There was a 63FB on GC last month but no CAC and based on the images I was not crazy about it. There was a higher grade FB example at HA recently too but here again, no CAC. In MS and MSFB, the 1926-S is the Key to the series...when excluding the 1945-P anyway.

    I prefer FB as well but sometimes it can't always happen. The hunt is always fun. :)

    Found this error and sent it in two years ago. 1941 S/S RPM FS-501

    Not considered to be an error but a variety. It's a strong RPM, very nice! B)
