The 1919 Mercury dime is a relatively common coin in circulated grades but quite scarce in uncirculated condition, with perhaps only a few hundred survivors across the entire Mint State spectrum. Uncirculated pieces are generally well struck and exhibit decent color and overall good eye appeal. Many uncirculated specimens exhibit Full Bands details.
