    Now don't you worry for one minute about that... they are doing quite well without our feedback, lol.... and I'm quite sure they do a much better job with their '16-D's; the OP's coin is one of the worst fakes I've seen.

    it looks like a cast counterfeit. There's a seam running along the rim on the obverse. Like it was put together from 2 halves

    I superimposed the one I have over a known picture of a 1916 D dime from PCGScoinfacts.com. This is the result. I knew the stamp looked like it was in the wrong place. There are no striations in my coin either from stamping.

    (The stronger D is the original one from the background)

    What program did you use to superimpose that?

    Photoshop. Set my coin at 50% opacity and matched the features.

    I mean at about 5 o'clock on the reverse of the coin.

    Nothing looks good about that dime at all, total fake would be my guess.
