1952-D 10C, FB

Description

1952-D Roosevelt Dime, Full Bands, NGC MS68. This exceptional 1952-D dime represents a premium example of Denver Mint coinage from the early Roosevelt series. The coin exhibits the desirable Full Bands (FB) designation, indicating sharp, complete separation of the parallel lines on the torch reverse—a significant marker of quality strike and eye appeal that collectors actively seek. Graded MS68 by NGC (Certificate #5863352003), this piece demonstrates near-gem quality with exceptional luster and minimal surface imperfections. The technical grade reflects superior striking detail and preservation, placing it well above the typical business strike examples encountered from this vintage. The 1952-D is a readily available date in the Roosevelt dime series, but high-grade examples with Full Bands designation command premium valuations among serious collectors. This lot represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a choice example of early 1950s Denver Mint dime production, suitable for advanced type sets or date collectors pursuing quality representatives from this period.
