Some delicious purple tones on that one~~

 

Thanks Larry and rev. I've got a couple more to post although only the images are mine, not the coins.

 

I checked out your whole dime album... some real beauties in there.

 

I'm a beginner, and have so far never bought a premium coin. Is it likely to be able to build a rainbow toned set by searching coin rolls?

 

If your meaning was to build a 'premium' set of rainbow toned merc's by searching roll's... then No.. not at all. In fact, you'd probably have better luck hitting the pick 4 lottery than finding even one premium toned rainbow merc in a roll.... Assuming your searching common rolls sold on the 'bay and not 'premium' BU rolls sold in another venue.

 

Just got these little ones. Paid less than melt.

 

NICE SCORE ! I love the way a bit of circulation on mercs makes the detail details stand out. all those little nooks and crannies fill in and make the design really stand out.

 

Amazing !

 

I don't have many Mercs, though I love the design. This is a common date/mm that I purchased in a basement-slab. Nothing special, but beautiful nonetheless. Guess the grade if you care to.

 

Quite a beauty.

 

BRG5659 nice 1943-D
If that would grade MS-66FB that would not be a common date or mint mark 1943-1945 PDS are semi rare.

 

Uh... the '43-'45's are the most common Mercs out there. I find them in rolls from time to time when searching boxes.

 

I think he is saying the grade is uncommon, not the date.

 

Yep, sorry jello, but MercCrazy is correct. The 43-45 Mercs are pretty easily obtained in high grade. Of course, you won't find any MS66FB in rolls.

 

A true beauty!

 

Some nicer ones I recently picked up:
