1929-D Mercury Dime MS-64 PCGS (FB)
In 1929, the Denver Mint produced just over five million silver dimes, a relatively modest output that makes well-preserved survivors from this year particularly fascinating to study. This specific ten-cent piece is composed of 90 percent silver, containing 0.0723 troy ounces of the precious metal. It represents the final year of production before the onset of the Great Depression altered the economic landscape of the United States. This specimen is certified in Mint State 64 condition, with the highly sought-after Full Bands designation. This special designation indicates that the horizontal bands wrapping around the fasces on the reverse side are fully defined and separated, showing an exceptional level of detail from the striking process. The obverse features the iconic wing-helmeted figure representing Liberty, accompanied by the legible inscription of the national motto, "IN GOD WE TRUST."
