- Lot Description
- 1935 Mercury Dime. MS-68 FB (NGC).
Brilliant, silky smooth surfaces allow full appreciation of razor sharp striking detail and intense mint luster. Among 1930s Mercury dimes the 1935 Philadelphia Mint issue is among the most readily obtainable in both circulated and Mint State grades. Yet even this issue develops into an important condition rarity at a certain level of preservation, however, which in this case is MS-68 FB. Tied for finest certified at PCGS and NGC, and seemingly earmarked for inclusion in a top-ranked collection on the Set Registry at the latter service.
Provenance: From the Fort Lee Collection, Part II.
NGC Census: 7; 0 finer.
PCGS# 4993. NGC ID: 23JC.
