1918-D Mercury Dime. MS-65+ FB (NGC). CAC.

$21,000

Condition Census Full Bands 1918-D Mercury Dime

Just 1 Finer at NGC and CAC

A dazzling Gem with satiny luster and virtually untouched surfaces. Exceptionally well struck with predominantly pearly-silver coloration across both sides. This is absolutely one of the most desirable survivors of this issue, with only 1 single coin ranking higher at NGC and CAC. An irresistible treasure for advanced Mercury dime specialists.

A product of the wartime Denver Mint, the 1918-D was produced in large numbers (22,674,800 pieces), but with little regard for quality. Most coins were very weakly struck, even in the peripheries where sharpness is rarely an issue. It is thought that fewer than 20% of Mint State examples exhibit the central sharpness to qualify for the Full Bands designation and these are largely confined to grades of MS-64 and lower. This MS-65+ FB (NGC) CAC is a miraculous survivor showcasing exceptional production quality and preservation.

NGC Census: 1; 1 finer.

CAC Population: 6; 1 finer.

PCGS# 4919. NGC ID: 23H6.
