[QUOTE="heavycam.monstervam, post: 3227603, member: 73448"]Ive bought a few slick 1916 dimes over the years. Hoping to get them home and find a D mint mark with better magnification. So far, no dice. They been S mints every.single.time. Same goes for the 1912 Nick-Nacks. Well, i spotted this beat up, worn slick '16 with a black gunk on the reverse in a junk bin. So, i decided to take a gamble.
