You would have to catch me first.

Do not get me wrong, I would love to restore and own a classic car. Unfortunately, this is not the right time in my life to do so.

In my last post I forget to actually comment on the 1916-D.

This is a coin on my list and I do look for them at every coin show. If I found one that I was confident about at a price I was comfortable with, I would not hesitate to buy it.


HAHHA! We were thinking the same thing jbuck; though I think he was referring to the evo.

Maybe so, but I had to say something.
For the record, the F150 is my truck of choice.

As for a classic car, I would take a 1969 Corvette Convertible. Or a 1968 Mustang. Yes, like in Bullitt.

Alas, this is a coin forum. However, we can continue this in the General Discussion forum.

understood. I'm sorry for the diversion coincrazed...

Another suggestion for your 16-d. In G-4, they often has incomplete rims on the reverse, some of them have wear nearly halfway into the lettering(especially in "AMERICA"). I would search long and hard for one with as strong of rims as possible. There are very few G-4s with full reverse rims, but I've seen several....and yes, they were mostly in NGC slabs.

OK, I count 47 Mercury dimes that I've got in circulation since 1982.
Best is a 1942 Proof that still has nice reflective fields, although
the coin is covered in tiny black spots and it would probably grade
PR53-55.

Most of my hoard is from before 1995, but I know that I got five of them
since the year 2000, including the XF 1941 in 2008...
