1942/1-D Mercury Dime. FS-101. MS-63 FB (NGC).,Evenly toned in iridescent golden-rose, this attractive example also offers full satin luster and a sharply executed strike. Like its 1942/1 counterpart, this Denver Mint overdate was struck from an obverse die whose first impression came from a 1941-dated hub, but whose second impression came from one dated 1942. As early as September of 1941 the engraving department in the Philadelphia Mint was preparing dies for 1942-dated dime coinage, the urgency brought about by the large mintages required to feed the United States burgeoning economy of the World Ward Two era. Since 1941-dated dies were still in production at that time, it is easy to understand how dies could have been impressed from both 1941- and 1942-dated hubs, as described above.<p>At least two different 1942/1 obverse dies were prepared for Mercury dime production, one of which was forwarded to the Denver Mint where it struck an unknown percentage of the 60,740,000-coin mintage reported for the 1942-D. This overdate was first reported in the November 1960 issue of <em>The Numismatic Scrapbook Magazine</em>, its first publication following in Frank Spadones <em>Major Variety and Oddity Guide</em> of 1963. Precious few Mint State survivors have come to light since, although interestingly most are sharply struck and qualify as Full Bands. This lovely Choice example will appeal to advanced Mercury dime specialists and more generalized variety collectors alike.,PCGS# 5041. NGC ID: 23K6.,,From the Frog Run Farm Collection.
