I thought I would show off my new addition to my Mercury Dime collection.  Now I told myself, cut back on the auctions...take a break.  But no...I just had to take a peek at the Dimes on one of my favorites auction houses.  There it was, a 1916 Mercury Dime with some amazing and I think unusual toning.  Graded by PCGS as a MS64  Full Bands.  Oh yeah,  this one had my name all over it!  There was a bidding war though.  About 9 people were interested but not serious...  ;  )  haha    I especially wanted this one as it has Full Bands.   I have found that there are alot of pretty Mercury Dimes out there, but not too many that have split bands as well.   Toning and Full Bands, can't get better than that...   Well, I guess it could have been a 1916 "D"......    ; )  haha    Hope you enjoyed my blog!  All comments are welcome.
