Lot Title:	Collection of eighty different Mercury dimes in a Dansco 7123 album
Lot Number:	653
Description:	Pete Severensen Collection. Everything but the keys are represented within this Dansco album collection of Mercury dimes that has examples ranging in grade anywhere from Very Fine through Gem Uncirculated. The missing pieces are the 1916-D, the 1921, and the 1921-D while there are an extra six uncirculated 1940’s issues to potentially use as trade bait? An apparently large amount of effort went into piecing this particular set together and it is very evident to even the most untrained eye. Included in this set are the following standouts: a 1916 (AU), a 1917-S (AU), a 1918-D (AU), a 1920 (AU), a 1920-D (XF), a 1923 (AU), a 1925-S (XF+), a 1926 (AU), a 1928-D (AU), a 1929 (AU+), a 1929-D (AU+), a 1929-S (BU), a 1931 (AU++), a 1931-S (AU), and many more! The 1942, 1943-D, and 1944-S are eye catchers due to some spectacular toning that may be worthy of grading (ck).

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
