Mercury Dime Price Guide Last Update: 02-06 07:11 AM EST Silver $26.96 ( +0.60 ) as of 02-05 04:59 PM EST. USA Coin Book Estimated Value of 1916 Barber Dime is Worth $4.73 in Average Condition and can be Worth $116 to $245 or more in Uncirculated (MS+) Mint Condition.

Additional Info: 1916 was the 1st year that the Mercury (actually named the Winged Liberty) dimes were minted. These beautiful dimes are 90% silver. If a mint mark was placed it would be on the reverse, near the word 'one' but you wont find one on this coin as it was minted in Philadelphia. Fully struck versions of this coin worth more. The Barber Dime is a classic American coin — part of a collection of dimes, quarters, and half dollars designed by Charles Barber, U.S. Mint Chief Engraver from 1879 to 1917. The Barber Dime replaced the Seated Liberty Dime in 1892 and was followed by the Mercury Dime in 1916.

  • 1640 — Ismaël Bullialdus suggests an inverse-square gravitational force law

The clear evidence of the existence of neutron stars – which had been viewed with much skepticism until then – combined with the presence of a critical mass above which stability cannot be achieved, made the existence of stellar-mass black holes inescapable.

CoinTrackers.com has estimated the 1916 D Mercury Dime value at an average of $949, one in certified mint state (MS+) could be worth $41,000. (see details)...

Type:Mercury Dime
Year:1916
Mint Mark: D
Face Value: 0.10 USD
Total Produced: 264,000 [?]
Silver Content: 90%
Silver Weight: .0723 oz.
Silver Melt: $1.97
Value: As a rough estimate of this coins value you can assume this coin in average condition will be valued at somewhere around $949, while one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $41,000 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say average, we mean in a similar condition to other coins issued in 1916, and mint state meaning it is certified MS+ by one of the top coin grading companies. [?].

Additional Info: These are the MOST VALUABLE mercury dimes ever minted! Some have been sold for 43,000 dollars. The 1916 (d) Denver Mercury dime was minted in seriously limited conditions! Just 264 thousand. If you happen to find one in a drawer or garage sale, grab that coin and head for the hills, you have just hit the jack pot. :) In addition you could always be generous and contact us, we would be more than happy to buy it for the silver spot, or face value :) This coin with Full Bands is worth even more.

Numismatic vs Intrinsic Value:This coin in poor condition is still worth $947.03 more than the intrinsic value from silver content of $1.97, this coin is thus more valuable to a collector than to a silver bug. Coins worth more to a collectors may be a better long term investment. If the metal prices drop you will still have a coin that a numismatic would want to buy.

Current silver melt value* for a 1916 D is $1.97 and this price is based off the current silver spot price of $27.22 This value is dynamic so bookmark it and comeback for an up to the minute silver melt value.

**When we say that 264,000, of these coins were produced or minted in 1916 this number doesn't always match the actual circulation count for this coin. The numbers come from the United States mint, and they don't reflect coins that have been melted, destroyed, or those that have never been released. Please keep that in mind.
