Oldgrouchyguy Pillar of the Community United States 630 Posts	Posted 05/07/2023 12:09 am Hello Everyone, picked-up a small lot of old ANACS Merc Dimes, and this one looks a lot like the DDO & DDR variety: the (W)E is doubled at the bottom, the U in TRUST is spiked at the tops, the tops of the letters of the reverse legend are doubled, etc. Is this coin that variety? Any comments are gratefully appreciated... Report this Post to the Staff

macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5823 Posts	Posted 05/07/2023 01:27 am Hard to tell from these images, check out variety vista and compare to yours, I have this one also which designated by ANACS, the spreads aren't really noticeable without using a good magnifier, the quick pick up point is usual with TR in the word TRUST. I will see if I can find some older images of one I have. Report this Post to the Staff

Oldgrouchyguy Pillar of the Community United States 630 Posts	Posted 05/07/2023 11:57 am I'll have it in hand Monday... those are Heritage scans. I saw that the top of the U in TRUST looked like "twin torches" and the bottom of the (W)E is clearly doubled. I'll post camera pics after it arrives Report this Post to the Staff

westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 05/07/2023 6:04 pm Went to ha.com and looked up the images, I think so after using the brightness adjustment and looking at the reverse it certainly appears so.

Oldgrouchyguy Pillar of the Community United States 630 Posts	Posted 05/10/2023 5:26 pm The coins have arrived, and true-to-form ANACS was a very conservative grader of Mercury dimes back-in-the-day... here is a close-up of the obverse; I will have others.
