matttheriley Pillar of the Community United States 1512 Posts	Posted 08/08/2014 11:18 am Hello all! I have this 1916 Mercury dime that looks to have a faint 'D' mintmark? What do you folks think? Thanks in advance! * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

CGCoins Pillar of the Community United States 797 Posts	Posted 08/08/2014 11:53 am I'm pretty confident with no "D" was ever minted on that coin for a mintmark. Report this Post to the Staff
GR58 Bedrock of the Community United States 11951 Posts	Posted 08/08/2014 12:06 pm 1916 D Mercury dime is the key to the series. I see what you are looking at, but I am no expert. So I am curious what the experts will say Report this Post to the Staff

perfessor Pillar of the Community United States 930 Posts	Posted 08/09/2014 12:42 am Definitely not a D. Sorry. All of the 1916-D mintmark positions are high so even a well worn coin would show at least some of the mintmark. I once had a 1916-S that was well worn and I had myself convinced that is could be a D. That is until I knew better. Report this Post to the Staff
