I'm wondering if they just couldn't tell, and put the "S" because of the odds.

Sorry to see no score on the dime. I thought it was possibly a D-mint. Being a SEGS fan, myself, I can usually show a questionable coin like this to Larry Briggs at a show and get a verbal acknowledgement before paying the freight, so to speak. IMHO, ANACS is more geared toward profit than truly servicing collectors. Why else would they slab a $2 coin? IMHO, they should have returned the dime in a bag and rebated part of the cost!

P.S. - Don't confuse SEGS with SGS!

Thanks for the replies,

I thought as others did that it had a good chance at coming back as a 16-D.
not all is lost, the other 2 coins I sent in were a pleasant surprise so it made up for it.
I showed the coin to a few collector friends who saw it in hand and they thought it was a lock.

As stated, now I have a $2 coin in a slab...lol
