Here is the latest upgrade to my set. There are only four of these graded at PCGS. I replaced my F-15 with an XF-45. Total pop 1 - ms60 2 - xf45 (my second one not in the pop report yet, so the pop report only shows 1) 1 - f-15 (my original coin from my set)  |

TreasHunt,
Yes. This is only the fourth one graded by PCGS. The top pop is MS60, and there are no FB graded yet. The third one graded was my ANACS VF-20 which PCGS says F-15. I have half the population on this one. LOL

I need that one too in my collection.
I saw one months ago from the ads L&C Coins has one not certify listed as MS60 and going for $2500.
Edit: Correction. That one was certified by PCGS!

Mac,
L&C still has that one at $2500, and it remains the top pop. In the two plus years looking for one of these I had to purchase these as varieties. I haven't been able to pick this one. Rare and known make this one tough.

Mac,
You may be getting some hits on your site. I added a link about your article in PCGS forum.

Thanks!
Only thing is I don't have much to sell for the moment, as my real job keeps me away.

Hello Arsave,
That is a very interesting variety and apparently it commands a significant premium. I guess I should pull out my silver dime stash and look at any 1945-S coins I may have.
Are there any other valuable merc varieties to look for among the common dates? I've already checked for the 1941/42 overdates; I know I don't have any of those!

Do a search for ARSAVE Coins and go to my variety resource pages. You will find a whole bunch of varieties for Mercury dimes. You could also click on my user name and take the link to my site. Some of the tougher varieties include 1935-S/S 1936/29-S possible overdate 1942-D/D 1945-D/Horizontal D. There are many many more. Good luck with your search. |
