Not a "doubled-die," but maybe EF-40 Merc?

[sgoss66]

After cleaning that Mercury dime from last night's hunt, it was not a "2 over 1" doubled-die version of the 42-D (darn!). However, it's definitely the nicest Merc I've found so far -- as best as I can tell it's possibly EF-40? Any opinions on that? In the picture of the reverse of the coin, the lower half of the coin is a tad bit out-of-focus; the top of the coin is more representative of the actual condition. Curious to hear opinions from folks with better "coin-grading" ability than I...

Thanks for looking,

Steve

Curt --

Fairly 03 29-ish, only a number or so in either direction on the fe/co numbers. Sounded silver, too!
