Golden Nickel Valued Member United States 116 Posts	Posted 07/07/2012 2:35 pm I have had my 1935 Mercury dime graded and it came back as a fine coin. With its grade what should I value it at. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

MadMortician Valued Member United States 397 Posts	Posted 07/07/2012 2:43 pm http://coins.about.com/od/coinvalue...e_values.htm says $1.00. http://values.hobbizine.com/mercury-dimes.html says $3.80. http://cointrackers.com/Mercury-Head-Dime.php says $5ish (no grade used). And based on ungraded coins on e-bay, I see $3-$5ish for some coins that look like they could be VF. But I'm no expert. Call a few coin shops, tell them what you've got, and they'll give you an idea of what they'd pay for it I'm sure. Hope that helps. Report this Post to the Staff

just carl Bedrock of the Community United States 20753 Posts	Posted 07/08/2012 08:44 am Is it a 1935 without a mint mark? Graded by who? You mentioned it came back as a fine coin. Never heard of a TPGS saying just a fine coin. Didn't it have something like F-12 or something like that? I'm a little confused as to why you would have had a 1935 Dime sent in for grading. Did someone tell you to do that? Report this Post to the Staff

southerngent Valued Member United States 469 Posts	Posted 07/09/2012 12:46 pm I would never recomend buying from Littleton or other companies like it. Most coins are over prices and over graded. Fin a good local dealer and get to know him. Report this Post to the Staff
smokeriderdon Pillar of the Community United States 3755 Posts	Posted 07/09/2012 4:15 pm That is not considered "graded". Littleton is a coin dealer, not a Third Party Grader ( TPG). You want a coin graded you send it to ANACS or ICG, or if you dont mind getting over charged, PCGS or NGC. Those are the four TPGs that will grade a coin and the grade be relatively acceptable. BUT, you need to do a little research forst to find out if the coin is worth sending in to anyone at all. A common date Merc circulated that much is NOT a coin to be sent in.
