<p>[QUOTE="Steven Sander, post: 2996256, member: 93191"]Hi all,</p><p>The other day I went to my bank to turn in some searched halves.

Being the nice woman she is, she saved them for me. Later that night I opened them to find that all but 3 were silver. 13 mercs, 34 Roosevelts and 3 clad all told. I looked them over a bit and this very worn mercury dime was in there. It appears to me to be a 1916. I most definitely has a mint mark making it either an S or a D. My question is how the heck do I tell the difference. I mean, it looks like a S but could possibly be a D but worn down. Are there any other ways to tell the difference?
