<p>[QUOTE="KLJ, post: 46757, member: 1910"]I bought my 1916D raw at a local coin show. The date and mintmark are identifiable, but it's in terrible shape. Usually, I would recommend against buying raw in such a situation. However, the price was right enough ($200) to make me think long and hard about it. I was worried about it's authenticity, so I took it to my trusted local dealer. He was of the opinion that it is real. He thought I was really lucky to be in the right place at the right time. He even told me what he would give me for it.</p><p><br /></p><p>And before anyone thinks he said it was real simply to make me feel good, I'm a regular enough customer that he knows he would lose a customer if he "bore false witness." It should also be noted that I'm a minister, and he knows it. I even helped in his son's wedding.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
