UNCIRCULATED[/URL] Two commem halves plus a "bonus coin", a silver dime -- oh, look! It's a 1916! And it looks like it has a little D on the back!

There's another lot with two commems and a shiny red Lincoln cent, looks like a 1909-S. I didn't look closely at the reverse, but I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see extra letters there, too. $20 or $30 for each lot, plus $4 to ship from Mother Russia.
