I agree that its a hand punched MM on the Die,as that is something I have read about before and was told here as well...I agree that the placement can be in a few general
places,,I agree that its just a oldish looking Roosevelt,,I was glad to get input,
,the only thing I do not agree with and will not untill 2 things happen someone sells me 50 UNC with this type of Placement-Size-Thin D on a 1987 D Roosevelt or show me one if it is so common,,again I have looked hard at all 80 some odd 1987 D Roosevelts on ebay NOBODY has one,,,pretty odd for a common coin to not be found at all on ebay,,

Not really. If you go take a look at some of the RPM's on coppercoins, you will see that the mintmarks are all over the place. They are close, almost touching the date. They are a mile away. They are tilted to the right and to the left. It can't be rare. Unless the die broke after this one coin, there are no telling how many were struck with that die. If some ultra rich person starts trying to complete a set of 1987-D Roosevelts by each die for the whole year, you may have something. Otherwise, it is worth $ 0.10.

cosmoscoins,

Exactly how many 1987-D Roosevelt dimes were on E-Bay to look at? The exact mintage for that particular dime is 653,203,402, w/ I'm sure MANY different dies used. Just because you didn't see one on E-Bay, doesn't meant there aren't any w/ that particular "D" in that location.

In all due respect, there are more than a few highly experienced collectors here on the CCF which freely share their experience w/ everyone else. If you don't want to take what they say for face value, why bother asking questions?

As I wrote about 80,,,most all of them have a little D or little D pitched right over the 7.

I know how what the mintage is Dave .Good glad to hear that,this is a place I would hope they would be,,this is a logical place for them to be at,this is a place they can help,,I am glad they are here.I will now again,,,,I think 2 0r 3 times now say thanks for the info,,some I knew some I didn't,glad to get the info.

I asked is the coin common got yes,I never said I think its common from start and I still do not think it is common.At least 90% are all UNC for 1987 D on ebay and they all look very much a like common to one another you may say.If I hear a 1000 people say its common and I do not see more of the item,,its still not common.Mr Wheat penny now I would said well they all have been on ebay now few times over,,many millions are common as they all look the same.

Now I will buy One roll to start,,thats just to start find more I will buy more in time -- Very Fine To AU or UNC.That way if they are found in Bank Boxes or rolls from stores I will take them how about that.UNC on ebay are about $1.50..Being its a common type D on a 1987 Roosevelt $150.00 for the roll.I am saying $3.00 a coin if found but I want full roll of this dime,Dime in my pic only,if common should be few hours at best picking 2500 dimes,$3.00 for a common UNC 1987 D Roosevelt,as my dime is in the pic,is more then fair....Warning the dime is NOT common.Cosmos

The CONECA site shows the different MM styles for Denver. They have a lot of photos for cents, nickels and quarters -- sorry no dimes. But there is a MM that looks just like the one on your dime.



This thread had got me to thinking...... now I have to go look at ALL my coins again. LOL

Say what?





Seriously, I would keep that dime because I keep everything that is a little different. This is only because I have yet to find anything that is really different.

Here is one with the exact same style mint mark. It is in a different place, but that is to be expected.

No sorry. The D is the same D. If you will look on the link below, Denver used the tall thin mint mark from 1985 to 1987. So unless yours is the fat one they started using in 1988, it isn't a variety. Coneca doesn't have the pics for dimes, but the cent, nickel, and quarter all used the tall thin D from 1985-1987. You have been adamant about it being thin so it shouldn't be the fatter D they changed to in 1988, right? Oh and I did look. Exact same D.

You know, you are right actually, because I would almost guarantee that if you got a roll of 1987-D dimes, none of the 50 would be exactly the same. You could do the same with 1984-D's, 1980-D's and so on. There were so many different dies used in minting the, almost 1 billion, dimes in 1987 you probably wouldn't get 2 from the same die. So no I can't pull it from my pocket. But you know what? It's still just a dime.

No,,Cello D's for 1987 are a little over to the left,,Cir and I do not care how many
Die's were used they made millions just above the 7 over and over not much different at all,,unlike this dime I found in pic 1 on page 1,,so please find some for me if you would if you still think they are common,,bet you find many and many common D's over the 7 in 1987 D Roosevelt,,,thanks for your time and comments ,,Cosmos
