<p>[QUOTE="mralexanderb, post: 1285681, member: 7851"]coleguy,</p><p> I think your photos look good, but I've always have had reservations about buying a 1916D Merc that wasn't slabbed as real. I bid the most that I thought best, and I wasn't going to go higher for a coin as worn as this one was. Also, the obvious doubts I have about the authenticity of this KEY coin. I think I'll stick with a slabbed coin or a trusted local dealer for the last Merc that I need for my "childhood" collection that I got out of circulation. My first collection, being Mercs, are mostly worn coins, but they are my first from my childhood collecting activity. That is something I'd like to complete, even in worn condition, to match the coin that I have in my first collection.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
