Some Dates are visible, would like to know mint etc.. If Possible, not being a dime expert I have had these for at least 30 years in a plastic bag.

Thanks, Any questions or if you need a better pic let me know.

Thanks

Looks more like a 1919, but I didn't see a D on the back. You got good eyes.

the shape of the 9 in the date was changed in 1928 from a big open loop to a small closed loop.

The realy worn was is clearly a D, but can't make out the date from the photos. All the others are "P"s, or Philadelphia mint.

I'd have to have it in hand, but I'm about 50/50 on the unknown one being 1923.... If the date can be made out then that coin would be an excellent candidate for a P-AG set...

I've been thinking about starting one of those... I love putting together uber circulated sets...

Next Task! Can you ID these? I don't remember why I kept them, I probably thought they where cool.

PS: I have a lot of old coins I collected as a kid, I have most sorted by year so if you want to see Dimes and Quarters By year (or I should say by decade) let me know.

I know what they are, I was hoping some would be able to ID Mints or years (I know they are extremely worn)

Thanks

My mistake! My eyes aren't that good, I can't make out any of the dates or mint marks, but some others might be able to!

but 191?-D bring it some ware you can trust and have them look it over with a 30X lop you may have a winner or 1916-D I seen one that look a lot like that but grade by a TPG ag-3.
