The final S mint Mercury Dime is another common issue, notable for its Micro S variety. In Full Bands in becomes much more challenging. This regular variety example is well struck with full bands.

The micro S version of the 1945 S is a popular variety in which the S mintmark is a bit smaller, it is rarer than the normal version and as such commands a premium. This example is a nice Gem, and while it lacks the FB designation, the strike overall is not bad at all. DL

The 1945 D, the final Denver mint issue is common in all grades. This example is a flashy fully struck MS65 FB that is PQ for the grade.

This MS66 issue of the final year Mercury Dime has fantastic eye appeal, however, like most coins of this issue lacks Full Bands.

With a mintage of 231,410,000 the 1944 P issue had the highest mintage in the series. This totally original example has fantastic surfaces and luster to go with its full strike. Seems like it might be undergraded unless the toning has affected the grade.

The 1944 D is another common issue even with FB’s. This example is a lot like the 1944 P coin fantastic coin overall, but perhaps the nature of the toning, somewhat splotchy has kept it from a higher grade. Hey, at the end of the day MS66 FB is nothing to sneeze at.

Again the 1944 S is a very common issue. This coin has fantastic eye appeal, with the attractive album toning, fantastic surfaces, and luster. It has not earned the FB designation, however the strike is excellent overall and it sure looks like FB’s to me, at least 99% if not. CAC may have agreed with me as this coin received the coveted Gold CAC sticker. It is a registry point hit, but I guess I’ll eat the point loss because I love the look, I love the old Fatty holder and also the gold CAC.

The 1943 D is very common, even with FB’s. This coin is a fantastic example of a business strike Mercury Dime, I love the originality, prefer it to a blast white coin that likely may have had a quick bath. The coin has attractive toning, loads of luster, and a full strike throughout. It has received CAC confirmation.

1943 S like most from the 1940’s is a common issue including with FB’s. This example is one I am considering upgrading, while it lacks a FB designation, it is well struck overall, has pristine surfaces abundant luster, and overall great eye appeal.

The 1943 Issue is very common even with FB’s. My example here is a coin with fantastic eye appeal, very flashy with a full strike overall. The only thing holding this coin back is that it’s just shy of FB’s.

1942 P saw the highest mintage to date at 205,410,000, of Mercury Dimes only to be eclipsed by 1 other date the 1944 issue. As such it is a common issue even with FB’s. My example for the date is a well struck, pristine and lustrous MS67 FB’s, this coin has also been awarded a CAC sticker.

The 1942/1 Mercury Dime is one of the major varieties. This CAC approved XF40 is certainly a PQ example for the grade. It also has an Eye Appeal Seal sticker, however, I know little about what it means but someone paid $100 to get it on there so I have left it.

The 1942/1 D Dime is another major variety in the series and also another of the semi key, if not key dates. This is a very pleasing XF40 displaying good detail and with nice surfaces.

The 1942 S while common overall is a bit tougher with FB’s. This coin makes a nice example of the issue, with fantastic surfaces, full strike and nice luster. The splotchy toning would be its only weakness.
