1996 W Dime

The mintage for a 1996 W dime is 1,457,000

Right now they are not hard to find.

Red Book has them MS 65 $20.00

Until they become harder to find and/or Roosevelt dimes
become more popular, the price may not change much.

In my opinion keeping BU or proof coins in quality coin tubes
does not hurt them.

Yes I do have to agree I always pick up the whole set when I see them for 15 or less. I usually try to buy multiples of the set at even a better price. The last time I picked up some of the set, I got the whole set for 11 each.

I do the same for 2009 mint set cents. But here usually only but the 8 cents in multiple lots.

Don't expect to price appreciation to even beat inflation, but it's about what we like correct?

You never know, if I can keep my grand kids interested in coin collecting and they keep their grand kids in coin collecting, they may be worth a nice return by then.

I like how you are thinking.

If I can motivate my grandkids, to continue what I am doing,
for their grandkids.

And add to my collection.

It might be a worth while collection.

Well... or a nice hoard of coins.
