1916-D 10C MS64 Full Bands PCGS. The 1916-D Mercury Di
<B>1916-D 10C MS64 Full Bands PCGS.</B></I> The 1916-D Mercury Dime is a key-date issue with a production of just 264,000 coins that were all delivered in November of that year. It seems that the coinage was halted so that Denver Mint personnel could concentrate on production of six million quarter dollars at the end of the year. Nearly all of these dimes that have survived the past century have done so in lower grades, with most examples showing considerable signs of circulation. Choice and Gem Mint State examples are not often seen, especially with full bands like this piece. Both sides have deep and vibrant iridescent toning over satiny luster. A few tiny surface ticks have undoubtedly prevented a higher grade.<BR><I>From The Park Cities Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
