That's fine. I actually felt a bit greedy since this was my second time around. My max bid was $400, and I thought I would get outbid....but nope....
NGC is often actually stricter on 1916-d dimes than PCGS believe it or not. If I were you, I'd definitely keep that coin in the slab it's in. Your...
Treasurehunt: Is it still your opinion that this is a 1917 with the updated picture?
junk lots on ebay! Now it appears that I've gotten "lucky", and part of that is true; but I have scanned thousands and thousands of slqs in these...
Thanks guys. I'm still stuck between PR-1 and FR-2. It is stronger than all of the PR examples I've seen, but weaker than most of the FR-2...
That sounds really good if they all have dates and 1/3 or so of them are in the VF range!! We need pics of the better ones! Congrats!!
Lot came in today....Time for RESULTS! Received today, and I'm grinning from ear to ear!! :hail::hail::hail:Here are some better pictures. Also...

Thank you for that analysis Marshal! That is exactly the type of response I was looking for. Personally, I think the wall definition is closer to...
I did post it over there as an add-on to the thread that I originally started in regards to my first dateless 1916 find. So far it seems that the...
Go back and study the 2 examples that I posted with the red diagrams. It discusses all of the major diagnostic differences in detail with pictures...
All 3 of those are 1917 type 1s. The shield rivet detail gives it away, as well as the drapery creases.

I appreciate your help.:cool: I feel like I have a handle on the diagnostics, but was looking for some confirmation as to whether or not the...
Those are good diagnostics budgood, though there are several that are very clear from a distance even on a coin with severe wear. Here is a...
Do you want to make bets on that?:cool: I'm quite confident this is a 1916 from the pictures I posted alone. I could be wrong, but I dont think...
