The 1917-S has a relatively large mintage for early branch mint Mercury dimes. In fact, the 1917-S is the highest mintage pre-1941 S-mint Mercury dime . Not surprising, the 1917-S is fairly available in circulated grades. Mint state examples are scarce and Gems are very scarce. Strike is usually not a problem with this issue and full band examples can be found without difficulty. Luster is usually more satiny than creamy.
Needed a 1917-S in XF and ebayer Duner had a great price. The coin looks just as good in person as it did in the photos, no photo trickery. It's rare to find someone that grades coins as strictly as I do. But Duner does and that's why I'm a repeat customer.
