My first Merc! (Dime) Pretty dang old

[relichunters]

So first off, anyone that knows me will know my pictures are usually blurry. But I found that using a scanner instead of a digital camera works 10X better.

I live on a farm and found this dime in the middle of the field on a hill. Pulling it out it looked like a can tab, but after I brushed it off, OMG it was my first real treasure. 1936

I haven't fully cleaned it yet as you can see in the picture. It's perfectly mint condition, no damage at all. Bright and shiny. Anyone know what these are worth?

BY THE WAY the scanner chopped off part of the picture, I tried it twice and same thing. But at least the front came out good. Except having to rotate the picture.

WOW!! Way to go! That Merc is in great shape!! I remember finding my first one, and it is always a big thrill each time you find one! Good luck, and may there be many more in your future.
