Notes:
"There
were over 34 million dimes produced this year, the vast majority came from
the Philadelphia Mint. Despite having made more than 22 million, only 13
coins have so far been graded over MS 65. Nevertheless, the 360 mint state
coins certified make the 1907-P available in most other grades."1
The finest Uncirculated
example graded by PCGS is a single MS-67.
The finest Proof example graded by PCGS is a single PR-68.
The finest Proof Cameo example graded by PCGS is a single PRCA-66.
