The 1935 Mercury Dime is a predictably elusive issue at the highest levels of preservation, despite a mintage exceeding 58 million pieces. Certified PCGS MS68 Full Bands, this coin is further distinguished as the only CAC-certified example at this level, with none finer, establishing it as a candidate for the finest known of the date. Both the PCGS Price Guide ($2,500) and CAC Price Guide ($3,300) trail the true market potential, as the single previous CAC-approved MS68 brought $6,325 04/2012 HA, and no example in a higher grade has ever sold. The present specimen is superior in both toning and eye appeal. The obverse is drenched in vibrant, fiery toning, with bold shades of crimson, magenta, and deep rose from 12 to 3 o’clock transitioning into golden-orange and amber across Liberty’s cap and cheek, while peach, champagne-gold, and soft olive-gray settle into the lower fields. Liberty’s features are framed by radiant luster and frosted texture, producing a halo effect around the portrait. The reverse exhibits a softer interplay of champagne and golden-beige at the centers, framed by copper-rose, orange-gold, and accents of emerald-green, with deeper magenta circling the rims from 7 to 11 o’clock. The strike is razor-sharp, with fully defined horizontal bands on the fasces and crisply detailed olive leaves, underscoring the Full Bands designation. Smooth and satiny surfaces, virtually free of abrasions, enhance the originality and depth of color. This piece exemplifies the finest marriage of condition and aesthetic appeal, a trophy-level Mercury Dime certain to captivate advanced collectors and Registry participants alike.
