I'm so glad it wasn't a dead (or live) cat

Liquidated a lot of my medals and bits and pieces to get my hands on these lot.

Got the 1941 on Saturday but my friend gave me my mail late

Now I have the war years, at least P mint. There is also S & D. I was actually going to sell the two I already had but decided to complete this small sample instead. 

It is commonly called a Mercury Dime but it's actually a Winged Head Liberty Dime. 1946 starts with the Roosevelt Dimes. Dimes are 90% silver up to and including 1964.

Do you pay spot price for this phase of yours? I grab them at spot whenever I can but don't go out of my way, not after getting one good example anyway.

They look a lot better in MS grade though

Yeah, I think I'm a bit too fond of fondling things for graded coins to work for me. Also I am not sure I could really tell the difference between a mediocre AU versus an MS etc

Morgans in the range MS61 to 63 are readily available at fairly cheap prices for the common ones, raw ones even more so. They do fondle quite nicely. Once you know what a MS coin looks like, you can easily pick up raw ones to hold and admire.
