    No, sorry, it’s pretty much worth it’s weight in silver.

    I wouldn't have it graded if it was mine. IMO

    What do you grade the coin and did you look up the value?

    @Newcoinboy2018 Your dime is a 1920-D. Minted in Denver. In that condition, it's only worth silver melt value.

    Since you seem to be interested in coins and have been posting some interesting (although not valuable) coins, I would strongly recommend getting the following book. It will give you a good idea of which coins are better dates and which are common. It also has some basic info on grading that will help you. Plus it's filled with a lot of info in general. It will be the best $10-15 you'll spend on the hobby

    Thank you so much. I will order this today. I recently finished “Lincoln Cent Error Coin Guide 2018” by Stan McDonald”.

    I picked up a roll of BU silver dimes. Are they worth sending out to get graded ? I’m assuming not but it was too good of a deal to pass up. And I have a whole APMEX Roll Of Silver quarters Unsearched that I should have bought. And a Troy ounce of A-mark silvr from 1981

    I was never a bookworm. However the RedBook @Oldhoopster showed you will draw you in like Sunday morning funny papers. Absolutely is an invaluable resource for all coin-o-holics.... If you have a bargain store nearby called Ollie’s, they tend to have previous year copies at a substantially reduced cost. You will pay a premium for the current year copy. I used my 1977 RedBook until I recently purchased a large print version. Just saying a previous year copy still is current on everything except 2018 mint releases.
