Lot Title: Collection of Mercury dimes, 1916 through 1945-S (no 1942/1 or 1945 micro S) in a Capital Plastics holder
Lot Number: 757
Description: S.B. Consignment. Capital plastics board sets are a very popular mode of displaying collections in a very open manner. It is very scarce to find a nearly complete collection of Mercury dimes to be displayed in this way but here it is. The only missing pieces of this numismatic puzzle are the 1916-D (represented by a second 1916-S) and the 1945-S Micro S which is not a very difficult to find example. While there are a vast number of valuable components the most notable examples are as follows: a 1916 (BU), a 1916-S (BU), a 1917-D (AU++), a 1917-S (AU), a 1918 (AU), a 1918-D (XF/AU), a 1918-S (AU, cleaned), a 1919 (AU), a 1919-D (AU), a 1920 (AU), a 1921 (VF, cleaned), a 1921-D (F), a 1923 (AU), a 1923-S (BU, cleaned), a 1926 (AU), a 1927 (AU++), and a 1931-D (BU). Many more above average examples litter this collection but there are too many to mention so please view this lot in person to fully appreciate its true value (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.
