Looks decent, did you get it from a reputable source though? I'd be scared to buy a raw 1916-d. I gotta get me one someday. Dealer near me has a F12 but a little pricey.

95% Full rims. I would say Good-6 though it would slab as VG-8.

Assuming it is genuine, I would go with G-4 though it could get a G-6 from a TPG. Looks like a nice coin! Congrats!

G6

Is it real though? Can you post a close-up of the mintmark?

Looks nice. I would have bought it certified. If it's a reputable dealer, you should be okay.

Thanks for the replies. I studied the mm pretty close. It looks like a die #2 to me. What do you guys think

so where & how did you get?
looks too good to be true unless you paid $800+ from a reputable dealer
or happen to find in old batch of un-searched coins?

Looks good to me too!

I think maybe a G-4 to G-6.
Work been keeping me away from the forum, just getting back from it.

Looks good to me. Hope you found it in circ.
G6 also. She spent a lot of time on her back huh ? :)
The "D" matches up well as far as wear with the rest of the Rev.

I wish it were from circulation, I paid a fair price for it, not to high but not to low either. I like it and now I can close my first book. Oh NO, I guess it's going to be time to "upgrade" soon
