Description
1937 10C Mercury Dime, FB, PCGS MS68. This exceptional Mercury Dime represents a superior example of Adolph Alexander Weinman's iconic design from the final decade of the series' production. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint in 1937 with a substantial mintage of 56,860,000 pieces, this specimen has achieved the coveted FB designation, indicating fully split and visible fasces bands on the reverse—a hallmark of exceptional striking quality and eye appeal that collectors actively seek. Graded PCGS MS68, this coin displays remarkable preservation with lustrous surfaces and sharp detail throughout. The grade placement is particularly noteworthy given the population data: with only one example graded finer across 65 total submissions to PCGS, this represents an exceptional rarity at this grade level. The coin's technical specifications—90% silver composition with a reeded edge and 2.5-gram weight—are consistent with the standard Mercury Dime specifications of the era. The combination of the FB designation, near-gem Mint State preservation, and scarcity at this grade level makes this an outstanding opportunity for serious Mercury Dime specialists and silver coin collectors seeking high-quality examples of this beloved series.
