Lot Description

1921 Mercury Dime. MS-66 FB (PCGS). Although this issue is a bit more plentiful in an absolute sense than a mintage of 1.2 million pieces might suggest, the 1921 Mercury dime remains rare in the finest Mint State grades. Exceptionally attractive, this premium example is brightly lustrous with a full endowment of mint frost. Untoned apart from the lightest pale-gold iridescence, with a razor-sharp strike and smooth, Gem-quality sheen. Provenance: Newly certified and never before offered publicly. PCGS Population: 49; 9 finer (MS-67 FB finest). PCGS# 4935. NGC ID: 23HE. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
