I picked out the silver and a few others that caught my eye. I also made a post in the World coin grading forum and will be making a thread in the Canadian grading section, and I've got a few old Mexican bank notes as well. Report this Post to the Staff

Shoesnsocks Valued Member United States 114 Posts	Posted 03/13/2018 1:51 pm Kind of both I guess. I figure the Nickels are probably not worth any more than melt value and probably the Roosevelt dime as well, but wanted to at least hear what grades people would give these coins so I can have an idea in the future when I find more coins what they will probably be.

CJ18850 Pillar of the Community United States 575 Posts	Posted 03/13/2018 2:01 pm Nice 1944S Mercury dime. I'm not a professional grader, but I'd give it an EF40, maybe a VF20. Cannot see the hair clearly. Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 03/13/2018 3:50 pm To be completely honest, old circulated silver is most often (80%) of the time just melt value(see my post in your other thread). What you need to pay attention to is mintages. Lower mintages in lower grade may just have a premium to them. That said , neither of the dimes are, both are common. On the Merc, I go by how much feathering is on the wing, yours is about XF40/45 maybe, reverse looks clean. The Roosie would go @ EF30 tops, but seems environmentally damaged, further lowering value. The nickels, 43P is The most common of all 11 dates/mintmarks, the 44D is a smaller mintage and for me at least, harder to get. Both are worn to G3-8 condition, melt value.

T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 03/14/2018 2:12 pm ,but that 44-S Merc with a touch of conservation will fit nicely into anyone's circulated set . Report this Post to the Staff
