1916-D Mercury Dime (10c)

The 1916-D Mercury Dime is a key date in the series, known for its extremely low mintage of only 264,000 coins, the lowest in the series. The low mintage occurred because the Denver Mint had already produced a substantial number of Barber Dimes earlier in the year before transitioning to the new Mercury Dime design. Additionally, demand for new dimes was lower in late 1916, resulting in limited production.

This is a key date coin in a very collector-friendly grade & price. The date & mintmark are both fully visible, the coin has a pleasing circulated look with distinct darkness outlining the devices, and there are no major blemishes or hits visible. She saw a lot of wear before she was rescued from circulation, but it's a true 16-D that you can call your own.
