*Notes: AMAZING bust!! note the detail at the center of the breastplate, there appears to be a dot decoration there, also notice the 'dots' between, before and after the '. P . F .' in his title on the obverse(front). Just an amazing obverse with a fantastic bust! The reverse, leaves a little something to be desired, but the obverse more than makes up for it. Sadly it doesnt weigh 5.1 grams like my other Gallienus AR Ant of the same reverse.... but it does weigh near to 4 Grams, which is still good weight for a coin of the period.... also good size.

1929 Dime - Dark Toning~
~~
USA, 1929 'Mercury Dime'. Struck at the Philadelphia Mint in Pennsylvania.
A gift from an elderly man I worked for who collected coins and was a professor of the classics at Princeton University. You can see quite a bit of good detail on this coin remaining, the dark toning kinda makes it less noticeable, but I really like this little guy!

*NOTE: The fingerprint on the reverse seems to have been made a long time ago, it also seems to have become part of the toning, and won't just come off with a wipe, unless one were to clean the coin with some solution I imagine, which I would never do to such a coin..... The print was probably made back, long before my father recieved these coins in the 1950s..... since they have sat in a safe deposit box since then.
