The later mercs sell for bullion or just above it in circulated condition typically.

Far from true. With the Mercury dimes there are some really valuable ones that most ignor. For example the 1945. One of those with FULL BANDS on the reverse could go for anywhere from $25 to $45 thousand dollars. As noted you have to really watch for the 42/41 and 42D/41. The D is really a tuff one to spot. And too there are several large and small Mint marks being found. Mostly the 45 Micro S is the most popular but mostly due to no one knowing how many of the others there are.
Many of the even really so called common dates are and can be expensive or valuable pending the Full Steel Bands on the reverse. Such FSB coins are in a separate valuable pricing.
And although the 31D is not valued highly, it should be noted that it is the 4th lowest minted Merc dime.
I suggest you look into purchasing a copy of the Red Book by Whitman Publishing for a sort of over view of all your coins.

I did say 'circulated'. And I dont think it is possible to have a FB designation on a circulated merc.
