Congratulations on your Mercury dime set!  I'm just starting my Mercury dimes so have a long way to go. Hopefully it won't be long until I can have a thread like this. Edited by matchbox

I do hope to one day get a cerified 16D but I may need to wait till the price of silver is $75+ then I will sell my set of roosies for it

Completing a Mercury dime set on the cheap. I love it! I wish I would have thought of it. I could have saved about $1500... It would be nice to see a picture of the 16D for verification. |

well here is what I have in the 16D slot many said they think it is an S but I think the top of the mint mark looks too flat and there looks like a 90 turn on the left side  Edited by yotie

I'm not saying yours isn't a 16d because I don't know but
I will say there are a lot of merc sets out there minus the 16d, including mine.
The coin dealer I know once told me about all the sets that come in, minus the keys,
set after set with the same glaring hole or holes.
He has a good point, you gotta get the keys and I really want to but....

....but I have better things to spend on besides a 16D 500-900 dollars--like bills and mortgage and food ect.

It's hard to complete the Mercs when "Just Carl" has all the 16d's. When he decides to sell I may be able to get one because the price will drop due to the influx of coins on the market.  |
