But I have a silver dime that appears to be disfigured and I think left the mint this way. The date is 1961. Would anybody know what it is worth?

Frank89419 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 11/07/2011 10:45 pm Thanks you guys, about 10 years ago I bought 300 of these dimes, I don't remember what the price was per ounce but I bought them off a tv show and I paid I think 7 dollars over spot at the time (a guy who owns a coin shop told me I got ripped off) but now the value of them has more than doubled what I paid. So I'm happy, thanks again! Report this Post to the Staff
