In 1906, the Denver Mint came on line and began producing coins. Among the denominations produced in that first year were Dimes, Quarter Dollars, Half Dollars, Half Eagles, Eagles, and Double Eagles. Among this list, the Dime enjoyed the largest mintage, perhaps because it was the smallest coins and easiest to produce. Next came the Half Dollar, whose mintage was only slightly less than that of the Dime. After that, mintages dropped off substantially on the remaining denominations.
The 1906-D Dime has a healthy mintage but it is still a semi-scarce date. In typical fashion, the most common grades are MS63 and MS64. Gems can be had for a price, but MS67 and better examples are rare and expensive. The two best examples are the colorful PCGS MS67's illustrated above.
Rarity and Survival Estimates Learn More
| Grades |
The Survival Estimate represents an average of one or more experts opinions as to how many examples survive of a particular coin in three categories: 1) all grades, 2) 60 or better, and 3) 65 or better. These estimates are based on a variety of sources, including population reports, auction appearances, and personal knowledge. Survival estimates include coins that are raw, certified by PCGS, and certified by other grading services. |
Numismatic Rarity converts the Survival Estimate for a particular coin into a number from 1 to 10 (with decimal increments) based on the PCGS Rarity Scale. The higher the number, the more rare the coin. |
Relative Rarity By Type ranks the rarity of this coin with all other coins of this Type. Lower numbers indicate rarer coins. |
Relative Rarity By Series ranks the rarity of this coin with all other coins of this Series. Lower numbers indicate rarer coins. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 65 or Better | 10000 | R-3.0 | 39 / 76 TIE | 39 / 76 TIE |
| All Grades | 500 | R-6.0 | 43 / 76 TIE | 43 / 76 TIE |
| 60 or Better | 100 | R-8.0 | 35 / 76 TIE | 35 / 76 TIE |
