I fell in love with the liberty dime (aka "mercury" dimes) when I was a youngster. I don't know why, other than it was my first taste of a coin...
Sent it out to three people who PMd me.
Is anyone here a counselor? I signed up to be one and made a pretty good power point presentation that gets the scouts through all the academic...
I have a 1916-D mercury dime that is PCGS certified at G-6. Yes, it's my most valuable dollar wise, but it's also my most valued personally. I...
