NumismaticsFTW Pillar of the Community United States 2286 Posts	Posted 11/10/2021 12:41 pm I have a very worn 1916 Mercury dime. It is worn flat around the mint mark area. I'm no specialist in these.. Is there a way to find the possible mint mark with it being worn as it is? It is a rotated to 11:45 die so I'm hopeful. You realize when you know how to think, it empowers you far beyond those who know only what to think. -Neil deGrasse Tyson Edited by NumismaticsFTW 11/10/2021 1:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHunter4 Pillar of the Community United States 1086 Posts	Posted 11/10/2021 12:43 pm Like you said, pics would be great! From what I have seen, the mintmark on real ones is pretty tilted, so you have a chance. Report this Post to the Staff
jacrispies Pillar of the Community United States 3848 Posts	Posted 11/10/2021 1:22 pm Unlikely, because mintmarks on the 1916-Ds are visible to some degree, even on worn coins. This coin has no sign of a mintmark. Suffering from bust half fever. Want to learn how to attribute early half dollars by die variety?

BH1964 Bedrock of the Community United States 10982 Posts	Posted 11/10/2021 1:25 pm I see no traces of a D. At no traces where the mintmark usually is found. The D on 1916-D Mercs shows up well even on heavily worn coins. ANA #R3154474 Report this Post to the Staff
