<p>[QUOTE=&quot;01mikep, post: 2098569, member: 34999&quot;]I recently came into a very worn 1838 Dime and found myself wondering if it has any &quot;value&quot; beyond melt.&nbsp; I have an appreciation for older US coins but my collecting does not focus on them.&nbsp; When I visit a coin shop or show, if I don&#039;t find what I am looking for, I usually ask if they have any circulated mercury dimes.&nbsp; I will buy a hand full and put them in jar at home.&nbsp; This time there was a couple seated dimes, including this very circulated 1838 one.</p><p><br /></p><p>My question is, does this coin still retain any value as a collectable coin in the condition it is in or do I toss it in the jar.&nbsp; I put it in a 2x2 for now.&nbsp; Let me know what you think. </p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for your time.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]394228[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]394229[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
