Description

# 1941-S Mercury Dime. An exceptional Full Bands (FB) Mercury Dime from the San Francisco Mint, this 1941-S represents a pinnacle of preservation and quality for the late-era Mercury dime series. Graded NGC MS-68 FB, this specimen offers extraordinary eye appeal and technical merit rarely encountered in pre-World War II coinage. The Full Bands designation, signifying complete, sharp horizontal bands on the fasces design, is particularly challenging to achieve for this date and mint. The coin displays exceptional luster and strike precision, with pristine surfaces that showcase the delicate design elements of Adolph A. Weinman's classic Mercury dime design. Minimal, if any, contact marks are visible, indicating exceptional handling and preservation throughout its history. The 1941-S Mercury Dime emerges from a pivotal year in American coinage, just prior to the United States' entry into World War II. With its NGC certification #8663164003, this coin represents a premier example of mid-20th century American numismatic artistry. Collectors will appreciate the coin's remarkable state of preservation and its status as a top-tier representative of its type. Provenance: NGC Certified. Mint Location: San Francisco. Condition: MS-68 FB. Starting Bid: $1,350
