    Late night searching..

    For all those still up and active tonight..

    I'm going thru a pile of mer dimes (about 25$ face value).. What dates should I look out for? I know some of the key dates, but are there specific ones that have special meaning or errors I should look for?

    Thanks again for all your help so far.

    I bet! I do have 2 1916's so far but one's date is illegible and the other has no mint mark... I suppose I'll keep searching. Click here to enlarge

    Honestly, any older merc F or better is worth putting aside.

    Oh I'm sure not going to spend any of them, but just making sure that I don't overlook anything. I use Coin-Manage software but I've already found some mistakes in the values it gives.

    I'll go so far as to post a list of what dates I have and how many on just the mer dimes when I get done tonight. Maybe that'd be easier to identify possible gems.

    Yeah it's been a while.. yeah almost done with the random rolls and albumns.. the proof sets will be a little quicker to go thru, so I'm looking forward to that.
