    I usually do not post these sort of posts, namely because I detest my photography skills. Still, I feel dimes need a little loving and attention, so here we are...

    We have all done it. Last week we went to a new electronic medical record system at work. Stressful work, some Woodford Reserve, Ebay, and before you know it, I bought three dimes that I was not actively looking for or even working on. The first one arrived today. I'll reveal grade in a couple of days.

    The photos are really too blurry to make a determination on either grade or FB, but I am still going with MS67 FB.

    67 Since both NGC and PCGS appear to put an emphasis on the middle bands I'll say NO FB. Clearer photos could possibly change that.

    MS-65 minor reverse rim dings and pic's are a bit blurry. Overall, a very nice looking Mercury.

    Not full band, but when I enlarged the photo, it became blurry to the point I can't determine if that is wear on Mercury's hair or not, so no guess.

    I would rate it MS 65. I'm not too sure about the bands. It could be the photo. The center band looks slick on the right side. I could be wrong tho on the bands.
