Losbeschreibung

Extraordinary top-of-the-pop quality for this otherwise readily obtainable Depression era Philadelphia Mint dime issue. Gorgeous lavender base that evenly blankets both sides of this eye appealing example. A small but complimenting rainbow array rings the reverse periphery. Razor sharp detail, including fully split bands, is representative of the best strikes available in the Mercury dime series.<p>At a mintage of slightly more than 3 million pieces, the 1931 Mercury dime as an issue is not particularly scarce in an absolute sense. At the Superb Gem Mint State grade level, however, it develops into a significant condition rarity. This example, graded a superior MS-67+ FB by PCGS and verified by CAC, is among the absolute finest available. Its offering in this sale represents a remarkable opportunity to add a truly rare coin to an advanced Mercury dime collection on the PCGS Set Registry.
