<B>1916-D<10C> MS64 Full Bands NGC.</B></I> The entire mintage of 264,000 Denver Mint dimes was struck in November of 1916. Presses were needed for the new quarter, and before dime coinage could resume a new year had begun. The 1916-D is not an absolute rarity, but the demand in all grades for this issue keeps the supply low. This is an originally toned near-Gem example that has fully split central bands on the reverse. The surfaces are matte-like with a satiny overlay of mint luster. Each side has mottled gray-russet toning with deep blue scattered around the margins. The eye appeal is superior for the designated grade. Struck from moderately rotated dies.
