1927-S 10C MS66 Full Bands PCGS
<B>1927-S 10C MS66 Full Bands PCGS.</B></I> This outstanding Premium Gem is tied for the finest Full Bands survivor certified by PCGS (12/07). The shining surfaces host devices that are solidly impressed at both the centers and the peripheries. The margins show elements of tan, bronze, and violet patina, while the remainder of each side is essentially brilliant. Powerful visual appeal for this San Francisco issue.<BR> Paradoxically, while Lange compares the 1927-S favorably to earlier S-mint dimes, he notes that the 1927-S pieces are far more elusive with Full Bands, and combined with a low general mintage and a tiny pool of Mint State pieces, the Full Bands coins for the year are particularly challenging. An attractive and carefully preserved representative such as the present exemplar should draw the attention of dedicated connoisseurs.<BR><I>From The Scheppman Collection, #4 PCGS Registry of Full Band Mercury Dimes.</B></I><BR><BR><B>Coin Engraver:</B> Adolph A.
