This guy just has some BEAUTIFUL Mercury dimes up for sale. Just thought it'd be worth noting. MS64? 65? What do you guys think?

I can hardly see a flaw. Surely a 65 or better.

That is a STUNING coin! However, is that a nasty hit on the reverse, second T and E in "STATES"?
Also, comic sans? Really?

Be careful here, bidding on a coin that is still available brand new by the roll.

At least 65 if no juiced photos.

MS65. The third photo shows the surface far more accurately than the first two.

Seller has a good return policy, so it's a low risk buy.

Just wondering what you other guys would have graded this merc., if the T & E on reverse was perfect. and the coin had all fully rounded bands ?
without having coin in hand, just looking at sellers photos :: my call would be MS-68 FB ... how about you ?

Rest in Peace

I agree with Ed,

No separation of center bands in the photos - no FSB.
