Found a "Mercury" Dime, my first.

I was got out today for a couple minutes. My knee is torn, so I can only go for a little while, but I had an itch to get out. I was in a friends yard, 1885 house, and found this 1917 dime. I can't tell if it had a mint mark as it is pretty worn away in that area. It's in poor condition, but my first "Mercury", so I was excited.
Thanks for looking

Don't tell my wife I was detecting.
I'm supposed to be "taking it easy".
