This is graded by ANACS but I would like to hear you're opinion on the coin. This will be for my merc set and I will crack it out to sit in the album.  Thanks |

I'm going to stick my neck out and call it VG-8 . If the fasces on reverse had something going on for itself then I would boost it up one notch to VG-10 .  |

That's a pretty nice looking Merc, it's darn near VG but my guess would be G06. Good pick up if the price was right. I'd save the slab insert and hi-res images of the coin in the slab.

Not good at grading but is it a MAD or off center planchet? If so does that change the desirability for a set, and value? John1  |

It does look like a minor MAD, but that usually wouldn't add a premium since the devices don't hang over the rim. I don't know if that would still be the case on such a rare date, though.

I hate having an open hole in an album. Its like my child is missing a shoe. Id have to break it out also as I would never sell it. That's the reason I never slabbed my 09S VDB. It just belonged in the album with all the others

 ..with panzaldi..I hate having a slabbed coin in my set too so, I broke my 1914D Lincoln ANACS out and put it in my album. The OP's coin is a great looking 16D which I'm missing at the moment. |
