I didn't find much at my recent trip to the local coin shop but I didn't want to leave empty handed. I decided to look through the old circulated silver coins or 'junk' silver as they're sometimes called to see if I could find any on the cusp.

Sometimes the coins you find are quite worn and barely resemble anything other than a smooth disc. Other times you find something that although circulated is nice. I found these 4 mercury dimes and thought they looked rather nice to be sitting in a 'junk' silver box, so I grabbed them.

Take a look and see for yourself!

Edges

The edges are quite worn but you can still see the reeding on them.

What do you expect from a circulated 78 year old dime!?!

Scale 🙃

I actually thought about taking a picture of these next to a modern dime for scale as a joke!
They're dimes! They are the size of a dime! What more can I say!?!


Details

Finally, here are some detailed images of these 4 beauties.
