Found this 1916 Mercury Dime on my weekly hunt. I also have a 1916 Barber Dime I found last year that I am posting too. Pretty cool. Some research showed that both these dimes were made in 1916! If my 1916 Merc had a "D' Denver Mint Mark it would be worth a few hundred! Found 2 wheats, and a beer tap? for a weekly clad total of $5.15.

Thanks! I guess the Barber Dimes last year was 1916. And when the 1916 Mercury "D" mint dime came out, there were very few made. A lot of fakes were made of the "D" mint dime. Mine is not "D", but I'll keep it!
 
Nice

Nice combination of same-year silvers!
I love finding same-year coins, recently I hit a 38 buff and a 38 Jefferson (in different hunts):D
