  • Over 3,000 Mercury Dimes Searched - Junk Silver Purchase - 1916 D Dime?
    I grabbed almost $400 Face Value in Junk Silver, as well as a few other odds and ends in a bag filled with all of my silver dealer's available Constitutional or Junk Silver, including Silver Dimes - which I was hoping would contain some key or semi-key dates, and perhaps even a variety or two!
    FYI - The bag had over $320 face value in Mercury Dimes alone - which is more than 3,200 of them!
    Hopefully you all enjoy this video!
    I ask for all of your input on that slick 1916 Dime... Is there a D (Denver) mint mark?
    As always - Happy Hunting and Thanks for Watching AND keep Stacking that silver my friends!!!

    With the possibility of that 1916 being a D, I would personally send it off and have it graded just to see. At the worst, you're out $22 plus shipping, if it is a D, then you made a lot more than what you spent getting it graded. Thanks for another video.

    I don’t think it is a 1916 D. The real ones have a kind of unique placement of the D. Still
    a very interesting find though. It could have even been a previous attempt to counterfeit. Thanks for posting!

      I tend to agree it's not. The supposed D looks to have a greater angle than the D on the 1926, But compare it to your 1916 D first. Also, check coins you think are 1941 for the 42/41 just in case.

  • @chrishebert5672
    @chrishebert5672 Před 4 lety

    Rob, I paused the video at 8:35. If you look at the angle of the "open area" of the "D" in the bottom image, it's angled toward the middle to upper part of that stem above it. However, on your 1916 dime, that open part of the "D" is parallel to the stem. Also, the top-left point of the "D" is angled toward the tip of the stem. On your 1916, if it IS a D, then the left edge is parallel to the stem. Now, that said, we are assuming that the "D" placement is the same on the 1916 as on the 1926. It isn't. On the 1916-D dime on the PCGS website, the open part of the "D" is parallel to the stem, not angled toward it. It's in the exact spot and angle as on your 1916 dime. I think I can see the outline of the "D" on your dime. The only issue I see is that your "D" may be too low compared to the PCGS example. May be worth having an expert look at it. See the 1916-D example here: www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin/1916-d-10c/4906

    If it was a D it would be more pronounced through the slick down areas. MMs are generally prominent even on heavy circulated coins.

    I would like that 1916 to be a D, but I am leaning towards it being damage. That 1858 O Half is pretty cool, the year Minnesota became a state.
    Pretty excited, found my 3rd W quarter yesterday. This time a War In The Pacific, so now I have 3/5 of the 2019-Ws.

    IMO I believe that it is not a 16d. I think it is just damage or possibly someone's attempt at a forgery.
