I'm going to go with MS-65. The rev isn't clear enough to get a FB designation. I grade it 65 because of the chatter underneath the "M" in America in the rev, a hit on her neck, and slight detail issues with the smaller feathers coming off of her hat.

No matter what the grade, you have a beautiful lustrous coin : )

That being said, I know nothing about Mercury dimes, but that's my best opinion

i would have to go with MS64 due to the contact mark on the neck and also on the reverse there seems to be some contacts as well.But, avery nice coin indeed.

Nice, MS65, maybe it'll slide to 64. I'd call the mark on the neck and the one on the fasces significant, but I've seen worse on MS65 slabbed Mercs.

64, weakness in lower hair. I'd get a porkypine quill or thorn and remove that spot by WE.
