    Looks like an FS-504 and perhaps an XF40. Probably under $15. Then, that is just an opinion. Nice find. Keep searching, tons of RPM's and OMM's out there. Good luck.

    I have two 1959-D dimes. One was found as a Coinstar machine reject. The other came out of a vending machine that does not deal with dimes, neither dispensing them as change nor accepting them for a purchase. I had put $2 in currency in the machine, made my selection for $1.25 and the machine kicked out 3 quarters plus the dime as change.The dime flew out of the change bin and hit the concrete floor the vending machine rested on. I knew immediately it was a silver from the sound it made. The 1959-D dime must have gotten wedged between the quarters when the change slots were loaded by the vending machine man. I collect 1959-D dimes now and eagerly await my third find. Finding a 1959-D/D would be like the holy grail of my 1959-D dime collection.
