Mercury Dimes
1918-D 10C MS64 Full Bands NGC. The 1918-D is scarce with Full Bands regardless of the grade, and the strike on this near-Gem example is indeed sharp throughout both sides. The intense, multicolor toning may divert some of the attention to its underlying surface quality, but the Choice surfaces are undeniable beneath variegated shades of blue, bronze, red, and forest-green. Census: 58 in 64 Full Bands, 10 finer (10/17).
