1949 Roosevelt Dime. MS-68 FB (PCGS).This is a formidable rarity for the Roosevelt collector, representing the sole finest certified example seen by PCGS, and the highest grade recognized by either of the top grading services. The obverse is painted in rich bands of colorful iridescence that intensify at the right border, showing a blend of teal, violet, and magenta hues. The reverse remains virtually brilliant , save for a slight dusting of olive patina visible under scrutiny. Perfectly executed and essentially untouched, the present piece simply cannot be improved upon. It is among the very finest survivors of a mintage of 30.9 million coins and is the ultimate treasure for the <em>PCGS Registry Set </em>participant.From the Anne Kate Collection.
