Out of its original (and massive) mintage of 136,564,600, only 1,242 of the 1958-D dimes (not including Full Torch) have been graded by NGC. And from among those, there are a mere 3 in MS68-STAR, with none finer (as of 4/2021)! This coin has a lot going for it: Red-green Christmas rainbow toning, the STAR designation from NGC for that stunning look, MS68 grade, a super-registry piece, and it's the finest known! The sophisticated numismatist who loves dramatic color on his or her coins should jump at the chance to get this piece! Take a look at the images of this piece. Just imagine holding it in your hand, tilting it to see all of the iridescent colors. Wouldn't it be the perfect addition to your collection?
1958-D 10C Roosevelt Dime NGC MS68 (STAR)--$1.675.00 "Rainbow toned" "Finest known" "Registry"
We are pleased to present for consideration a numismatic triple threat: finest known, registry, and rainbow-toned specimen! All that for a relatively inexpensive price. This strikingly beautiful coin would be the perfect addition (or first step) to a premium collection of rainbow-toned pieces of different denominations and series throughout American history. Or you could develop a type set of spectacular-looking dimes that includes proof, rainbow-toned, prooflike, and mint state. And this coin would be the perfect specimen to kick start that set.
Numismatic art critic and scholar Cornelius Vermeule discusses John R. Sinnock's obverse of his redesign of the dime in 1946, which he considers, "the logical memorial for Franklin Delano Roosevelt in the regular coinage." Vermeule continues, "Basing the head on his earlier Roosevelt presidential medal, Sinnock demonstrated his long practice and superior craftsmanship as a die designer in producing a clear, satisfying, and modestly stylish, no-nonsense coin that in total view comes forth with notes of grandeur....The die designer has achieved a precise, detailed portrait that shows full force of character amid a faithful portrayal. Mottoes enhance the massive head. A strong rim has protected the obverse from hasty deterioration."
