<p>[QUOTE="AdamL, post: 1037109, member: 6029"]Hey, Eddie. I'll try to explain the key date thing to you a little differently. When you get a Redbook, or some other price guide, check out the Mercury Dimes. You will see that most of them are pretty inexpensive, but not all of them. You will probably also notice that the 1916-D will probably be listed for somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,000 even in low grades. Thats an example of a key date. It is the key to the Mercury Dimes series. Thats just one example. Many series have more than one key. The keys are the rarer/more expensive coins that make completing a set of a certain type of coin more difficult.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
