CAC; PCGS POP: 35/23. CAC POP 2/3. BAD NEWS, GIRLS, THERE AIN'T 58 FB 19S DIMES IN 64 OR BETTER IN THE PCGS UNIVERSE, NOT EVEN CLOSE. THE 19S RUNS NECK AND NECK WITH THE 45 AS THE TOUGHEST MERCURY TO FIND IN FB AND, ARGUABLY, THE TWO ISSUES ARE THE REAL KEYS TO THE SERIES (SETTING ASIDE THE VARIETIES). CONSPICUOUSLY ABSENT IN HALF OF THE TOP REGISTRY SETS IS A FB 1919S IN ANY GRADE. THIS COIN IS FROM MY ORIGINAL SET (WITH RECENT STICKER) AND IS ONE OF THE JEWELS OF MY COLLECTION. DELICATE, ORIGINAL SALMON SURFACES WITH A STREAK OF BLUE ON THE HEAD DRESS. THE STRIKE IS LITERALLY PERFECT AND THE BANDS, FULLY ROUNDED AND DEEPLY SPLIT, FEATURES VIRTUALLY NEVER SEEN IN THIS ISSUE. THROW AWAY THE GREY SHEET AND AUCTION RECORDS. IF YOU WANT AN ORIGINAL 19S WITH FOR-REAL FB, IF YOU CAN FIND ONE, YOU WILL PAY BIG, VERY BIG.
