Lot Title:	Collection of 71 different Mercury dimes in a Capital Plastics holder
Lot Number:	821
Description:	While many collectors today prefer to house their collections in albums there is simply no denying the majestic nature of a well maintained Capital plastics board set. Seventy-one Mercury dimes nearly fill this wonderful collection that has examples ranging in grade from Very Good through Gem Uncirculated. The overwhelming majority of this set grades between Almost Uncirculated and Gem Uncirculated with predominantly white and lustrous surfaces noticed. Some of the most outstanding issues within this board set includes a 1916 (AU), a 1916-S (AU), a 1917-D (AU), a 1917-S (AU), a 1918 (AU), a 1918-D (BU), a 1918-S (AU), a 1919 (BU), a 1919-D (AU), a 1920-D (AU), a 1921 (VG+), a 1921-D (F), a 1924-D (AU), a 1924-S (BU), a 1925-D (AU), a 1926-D (AU), a 1927-D (XF+), a 1928-S (BU), and a 1931-D (BU). Nothing but uncirculated examples fills out the balance of the set that is truly deserving of being seen by anyone who is interested. Awesome (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.
