Post your top 1 toned Mercury Dime

[dimefreak]

You guys and gals did splendid on the Morgan thread but let's see how many nice mercs are out there. If my calculations are correct there should be much fewer Monsters in this thread!!! I'll update this when I get home to my PC with my offering.

It is really easy to pick my top toned Merc, since I only own one! NGC MS-67 in an old soap bar:

Physics,

 

The reverse on that coin is absolutely beautiful, the obverse......blah, not so much.

 

I will see what I can dig up in the safe.

I have two that I can't decide which is better.

 

I'll pick this one for today. I may change my mind for tomorrow though.

It is a little better in hand when the luster shines, but overall, yeah, I agree with you.

 

It was the reverse that really convinced me of this coin - it is stunning.

I really like this one.

Great looking Mercs everyone. I particularly like the look of Bob's.

All of them are very cool, but if I could only pick one....Stephanie's 1938 would be my favorite choice

1940-S DDO/DDR PCGS MS65FB

She was hit in the forehead with an ax. Good for Halloween posts.

Thanks for the nice compliment

Picking a favorite for me is actually harder than I thought. I am quite fond of this one. Looks far better with luster swirling behind it but unfortunately its not captured in the photo

Let's see some more... here's one from my short set. Recently purchased it back now that its in the Top Pop holder that I could never be able to get it in.URL=http://s334.photobucket.com/user/FBbreaker/media/IMG_20130917_210743_zpsa7b7f3a4.jpg.html][/url]

I have others but not near as attractive as these two. Better pictures when I find my real camera. Right Bob?

 

Dang it, the pictures aren't showing It is hell being so computer illiterate

As some have noted it is tough to pick. I only own two anymore but they are the ones I've owned the longest. The 18-S just had a nice antique look to it. Bought it raw from Stacks at the Long Beach show in 1994. The 19-S is VERY close to FB and it still (as far as I know) the rarest date in MS (all coins not just FB). So I'll show both....

I sold mine last year, but here is a photo of it anyway.

 

 

All things considered, I would like to have TomB's 39-D MS68 FB

Lehigh, I really like the reverse on yours.
