<B>1942/1-D 10C MS66 Full Bands PCGS.</B></I> FS-010.8. Details of the discovery of this overdate are somewhat cloudy, though David Lange, doing research for his book <I>The Complete Guide to Mercury Dimes,</B></I> claims to have come across its discovery in the November 1960 issue of <I>The Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine,</B></I> where a letter to the editor by someone calling himself "Days" reported he had seen a 1942/41-D dime.<BR> A thin coat of delicate ice-blue and beige-gold patina rests on lustrous surfaces that reveal a frosty finish. Excellent strike definition culminates in Full Bands, and each side is nicely preserved. As described in Bill Fivaz and J. Stanton's <I>The Cherrypickers' Guide,</B></I> Third Edition, doubling is visible on the designer's initials, the 1,9, and 4 of the date, and just slightly on some of the letters of IN GOD WE TRUST.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
