Mercury dime addiction

I have a 1945 P which, as far as I can tell, is FSB. Long Beach a couple of years ago from a junk box for $6.

What is the price range for ms 67s, if you don't mind. I mean the common date ones, without FSB. I'm with you though, I'm not interested in paying more for FSB

 

You can find them for as low as around $40 or $50 if you want to wait
long enough. Typically it is not hard to buy a common date, blast white pcgs ms67 for $60. For most common dates (ignore the big deceptions), you can generally buy a 66fb for about the same or a little more.

 

Outstanding coins - my congrats. Mercs are wonderful to collect and you can find beautiful gems at a decent price

 

Thanks Dimedude2. Got my eye on an ms68 in an upcoming auction. must.....click.....buy button.......

 

I love the 66+ in FSB, but if you want a true challenge see if you can collect the earlier dates, including the infamous 16-D

 

I don't see the attraction of FSB coins. They are a better and sharper strike and that is all. Otherwise non-FSB coins are just as attractive, just as "white". Also, much cheaper.
Same with Roosevelt's.

 

Some people prefer coins struck as their designers intended.

 

Maybe address your "addiction" by looking for a 1923D.

 

So my question is wat u think of the gold mercs

 

I'm with you. I don't even need high end...I just buy what looks good to me.
Mercs are my favorite dime

 

It depends on which year you are talking about...

The gold mercs will drop dramatically in the next couple of years - similar to the Baseball HOF commems.
