1944 10C Mercury Dime – PCGS MS66 – Gorgeous Luster
Description
Add a pristine piece of mid-century U.S. numismatic history to your collection with this 1944 Mercury Dime, certified in Mint State 66 (MS66) by PCGS.
Struck during the final stretch of World War II, this issue boasts a massive original Philadelphia mintage of over 231 million, yet finding survivors preserved in high uncirculated grades with pristine eye appeal is increasingly difficult. This particular specimen exhibits breathtaking, vibrant cartwheel luster that dances across Adolf A. Weinman’s iconic design, illuminating Liberty's winged cap and the reverse fasces with brilliant flash.
With only 634 examples graded higher by PCGS, this piece sits comfortably in the upper tiers of condition, making it an exceptional choice for a high-grade registry set or a standalone type coin.
