Rarity Factors and Value Drivers

The condition of 1968 Dimes significantly impacts their value, especially for high-grade examples. Coins in uncirculated condition (MS60 and above) are more valuable, with premium prices for those grading MS65 or higher.

Key factors affecting condition include:

1. Luster: Original mint luster should be present and unbroken.
2. Strike quality: Well-struck coins with sharp details are more desirable.
3. Surface preservation: Minimal contact marks or blemishes enhance value.

Additional factors that can influence the value of 1968 Dimes include:

1. Toning: Natural, attractive toning can increase desirability among collectors.
2. Die state: Late die state coins with interesting die cracks or cuds may command a premium.
3. Full Bands: Coins with fully separated bands on the torch (reverse) are more valuable.
4. Mint State grade: Even small differences in grade (e.g., MS66 vs. MS67) can significantly affect value.

While not particularly rare, high-grade 1968 Dimes are sought after by collectors assembling high-quality sets, driving demand for exceptional examples.
