1940 merc. dime

I paid .75 cents for it a couple of weeks ago and I want to know if the price of silver has driven them up. Anyone want to try to grade and value it?

the current melt value for a Mercury Dime is $1.68

 

cool. dont think ill sell it to be melted.........

 

What ziggy means is that it's only worth melt value. It's fair to say a dealer would pay you around $1.00-$1.25 for it.

 

Cool, I bought 6 of them for .75 cents from a dealer, so im happy Im making a profit.....!

 

Good buy, i'd buy will i could from him for .75 a piece

 

I tried to go back to him last week and he told me that they were now $1.50 each! Has silver jumped that much within 2 weeks????

Glad I got them when I did. They are all common dates, but they are still cool. He had some common date "V" nickels for 75 cents too.
I got a couple, including a 1912 "V" .........

 

nah, it didn't jump that much, he screwed up the first time.

 

My guess is he wasn't paying attention ande didn't get his prices updated. I would have bought all he had at 75c each.
