1942/1 FS-101 (FS-010.7). MS-62 PCGS.

Fully brilliant and lustrous. This coin offers a great first impression for its assigned grade, and a loupe does little to change the viewer’s mind. Choice for the grade. Once word got around about this popular 20th-century overdate, it was found in reasonably large numbers by alert NYC Subway toll booth personnel in the year of issue – they simply picked any old dime from their pocket and placed it into the till whenever they came across one of the error dimes. They also made a fairly handsome profit along the way, easily to the lordly tune of 10X face value or more. A popular scarcity, and a great story coin.
