None of them scream "fake" but several need authentication. Listing titles with "Denver" instead of "D" might hurt their bids.

Believe they have all been cleaned....the 21 Merc might be the exception. All would need certification, except the Peace dollar. 14 D, might not have been cleaned - just might be the lighting for the pictures. Does it have the dirty mottled appearance in hand? Nice XF 14 D though. |

Even though the 09-S VDB looks cleaned, I'd still love to have it to fill that hole in my Lincoln album.

All look real to me but most are not problem free. You're Bette off looking on VCoins.com for 1916-D merc's.

I agree these coins would do better, if they were certified in a good holder. From just the pictures nothing is jumping out as fake. I have been seeing more fake 1928 Peace dollars lately. To me they are easier to fake than other coins, taking off a mint mark vs putting one on. There are three different die markers that have been identified. I would feel better having that coin in hand to check it out, before buying. I do like the looks of the 14D Lincoln and the 16D mercury |

Pending the price, I'd like them all. But of course like everyone else, fantastic 1921 Mercury dime. |

They really look pretty decent to me to be honest. The only one I don't like is the Peace. They should definitely be slabbed, but the 14-d and the mercs are especially scarce in those grade levels.

I was considering the 21 dime, but after taking a good look at the 2nd "1" in the date I fell out of love with it. It probably is "ok" but the love affair was short-lived for me.

The 1914-D Lincoln went for $406.
1909-S VDB went for $656.56
1916-D Merc went for $385

I dropped out of the 1914d at $340.
If I did not have one, I would have went higher. But I think the person that won it
would have went higher than the $406.

The 16-d was a good price at that level. Would have gone higher with authentication, would make a G4 at least with the back rim.

Tried getting the 1909-S VDB, but it went too high for what it was. Still need to find a Christmas gift for myself!  |

For the money, the 16-D was a good score for the buyer!

I wouldn't call the 09S Harshly cleaned. Unless the woodgraining was confused for brush marks. It can be hard to grade a woodie. I do like it. And I agree the 16D was a good value at that price level.

Whoever got these should get them slabbed to determine if they are real......Ive seen some really good 09s vdb fakes that were hard to distinguish
