Frank Baumann Valued Member United States 451 Posts	Posted 09/06/2024 11:38 am Is it rare to have a 1945 P Mercury dime that is AU to have full bands on the lower torch? How much would it be worth? I found one for $10 but have not bought it yet. Let me know and thanks, Frank B. Edited by Frank Baumann 09/06/2024 12:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Frank Baumann Valued Member United States 451 Posts	Posted 09/06/2024 12:11 pm Hi, I do not know much about the full band thing but I see on ebay it should be BU to be worth anything. I may pass on the coin because it is not BU. Report this Post to the Staff

sickpuppy78501 Pillar of the Community United States 599 Posts	Posted 09/06/2024 1:40 pm It doesn't help unless the bands are full on both ends. I'd pass on it anyway, but it's up to you. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/06/2024 3:48 pm My understanding is all three horizontal bands need to be full. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Marv65 Bedrock of the Community United States 10504 Posts	Posted 09/06/2024 4:31 pm Well - for what it's worth- ""Full bands" on a Mercury dime refers to the complete separation and clear definition of the horizontal bands on the fasces depicted on the coin's reverse, indicating a well-struck coin where all the bands are visible without any breaks or blurring, making it more valuable to collectors.
