Introducción de monedas
Though its mintage was lower than for 1946 dimes of the other mints, the 1946-S issue was widely hoarded and presents little challenge to the collector seeking a nice specimen. Certified pieces are common through the grade of MS 67, though only a small percentage of the surviving total merits the FT designation. Most S-Mint dimes of the 1940s-50s are found poorly struck from worn and/or overpolished dies, so collectors should be alert for examples coined from fresh dies that have full details, rather than focusing solely on the torch lines. 1946-S dimes are rich in doubled-die varieties, especially on the reverse. These, however, are of limited interest, and most variety enthusiasts favor the many repunched mintmarks known for this issue. These include examples of both mintmark styles used for this date: Trumpet-Tail S and Knob-Tail S. The latter is more scarce, though this fact is little appreciated.Leer más
