[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 66612, member: 112"]This is the definition used by PCGS - Full Bands Term applied to Mercury (Winged Liberty Head) dimes when the central band is fully separated (FB). There can be no disturbance of the separation. Also applicable to Roosevelt dimes that display full separation in both the upper and lower pair of crossbands on the torch. This is NGC's definition - The designation FB for Full Bands will be applied to Roosevelt Dimes having both upper and lower pair of horizontal bands split with no major interruptions in the split. The FB designation will not apply to proof coins. NGC's definition of FB for Mercury dimes states that all bands on the facses must be split with no breaks. You can find more complete and better descritions of the grading designations used by the grading companies in their respective grading guides.[/QUOTE]
