Amac, I'd call that coin net F-15 actually. The reverse is between VG/F imo and the obverse is a solid VF. I'd like to get my hands on a 1916D dime myself, preferably in at least VG. Hopefully I can get a good deal somewhere, but congrats on your purchase OP.

All I can go by is the grade a TPG gave it if I had sent it to PCGS it would have come back an VG-8 with rev dragging the grade down. They say the the TPG don't do that but I think they do. |

That is one beautiful Mercury dime. Congrats on your purchase. That thing will go up and up and up. Hold on as long as you can (but not too long - can't take it with you, ha ha). |

Thanks all!  I was kinda hoping it would come back graded a little higher, especialy since there's a local dealer that has one graded the same and is asking $200 more for....in a lot worse shape.....but....    It's genuine, and it's found a good home! (at least until I can afford an upgrade! lol) |

I bought the 1916 D pictured below last year. It was graded by a TPG. What grade do you think they gave it? Image:  6b1b_1.jpg41.58 KB Image: a8d6_1.jpg12.45 KB alan |

afernbaugh, that's a nice one. By strict interpretation of the grading requirements, I'd say G-4?
