Dronepilot New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 01/31/2019 9:48 pm I found a few Mercury dimes and this is just one of twenty. I don't think they need anything but protection. What do you all think about this dime? Should I keep it? Report this Post to the Staff

sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21786 Posts	Posted 02/01/2019 04:45 am "Should I keep it?" Naw, - the '42 is just a spender! Just make sure that whatever you buy with it, is is for it's full numismatic value. One of the best wartime era dimes I have seen! I have a '20D in about the same condition, but much darker, yours looks a lot better than mine. So far as protection goes, best for it not to acquire any more patina. Protection should be air tight. Looks best if as close to blast white as possible. Edited by sel_69l 02/01/2019 04:48 am Report this Post to the Staff

Dronepilot New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 02/01/2019 3:23 pm I don't know if this is how I load a group of Mercury dimes but I will give it a try. There are alot of dine and I just post one reverse and the other obverse. Are they keepers? Andy Report this Post to the Staff
just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 02/01/2019 5:47 pm Fantastic. IF you don't want them, you could send them to me. I'll even pay postage. You should read up on those. Appears that some are what is called FSB or Full Steel Bands or close to that. Report this Post to the Staff
