<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 3111232, member: 66"]Bull. There would have been somewhere around 160 different obv die pairs used in 1916 for the mercury dimes, not to mention the 6,000+ other die pairs used through the rest of the series in order to determine the date on a WAY off center dime. And even then it has to be a die pair that has a die marker in that tiny area that happens to be struck on the planchet. Looking at low balls is a completely different thing because they are pretty much immediately identifiable at a glance and all they have to do is grade them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
