1937 10C, FB

Description

1937 10C Mercury Dime, FB, PCGS MS68. This exceptional 1937 Philadelphia Mercury Dime represents an outstanding example of Adolph Alexander Weinman's iconic design. Graded PCGS MS68 with the desirable FB (Full Bands) designation, this coin displays the sharp striking and luster characteristics that define premium Mercury Dime specimens. The Full Bands designation indicates fully separated horizontal lines on the fasces reverse, a feature that requires excellent striking and preservation to achieve. The Philadelphia Mint produced 56,860,000 dimes in 1937, yet survivors in this grade remain scarce. This coin's MS68 grade places it among the finest known examples, with only one higher grade recorded across the 65 total PCGS submissions of this date. The lustrous surfaces and sharp detail throughout demonstrate why this issue commands significant collector attention at the highest grades. Composed of 90% silver and 10% copper, this dime retains the precious metal content that makes Mercury Dimes popular with both numismatists and bullion investors. The combination of exceptional preservation, the coveted FB designation, and superior eye appeal makes this a noteworthy acquisition for serious Mercury Dime specialists seeking museum-quality examples.
