Sadly it is clearly an S. Oh well worth the gamble. I will be out a few dollars on return shipping, but I would go for it again the next time I see a chance with that being the only risk. Better then thinking it is a D and then sending it in and it not being genuine.
Rest in Peace

I agree, it was worth a shot.

Good question. Could you put them up of sale and let someone else pay the shipping, or would the fees make it worse than returning them?

Why return them? The seller has to start all over again and may never get the same action he had going. You gambled, lost, now life goes on,no?

Yeah, don't send them back just because of buyer's remorse. The seller never advertised this as a 16-D.

Return policy on the bay is not there as a mitigation tool for gambling choices. Had it been a D would you send the seller an extra $100? Then keep your silver dimes and call it a day.

eBay's "hassle-free" return policy doesn't cite exceptions--if the seller accepts returns, you're not required to defend your reasons.
"If you specify in the Return policy section of a listing that you accept returns, a buyer can start a return for that item for any reason."

If it had been a D, would the buyer have returned it? Seriously, this returning stuff gets out of hand...

Returning these dimes would be like buying a scratch off lottery ticket and then asking for your money back after you scratched it off and found out it's a looser.

Ah...awkward....now I feel dumb...yeah...I can see it can be an "S". All I thought about when looking at the image was, could that look like a "D"...never though about an "S"!

I was sure it was an S. As for returning it, go for it. It is the sellers problem. If they do not want items returned, then they can make their listings no returns accepted. This item undoubtedly fetched a premium because returns were accepted, so the tradeoff for that higher realized price is a risk of a return. The seller made a conscious decision to go that route, and the buyer has full right to return it if they wish.

For all of you saying this is the sellers issue, do NOT ever buy from me. I do NOT want your business.

Are you serious? As pointed out, you surely would NOT send that guy another hundred dollars if it WAS the D. None of you would. THIS is what makes ebay cruddy. I have been on the receiving end of this junk, and trust me, it makes me not want to sell at all.

And all of you would likely be the first to question a seller with no return on an item. You would be yelling RUN AWAY! Yet you are the reason sellers do that. I never had no returns listed on any of my items until jacked up buyers did exactly this junk to me. Anything I put up worth more than 20 bucks now gets a no return.

So for those of you that question why sellers have no return policies, this is a HUGE reason for it.
