One question: Why is that coin not encapsulated by a third-party grader?

Fairlaneman

"All Auctions are Sold As Is".

On this coin No Thanks !!!! Never have seen that seller as far as I can remember.

$15.00 for shipping......geez

for a non slabbed 16d...................pass

I would pass on any 1916-D on e-bay not in a slab. You don't see everything in a photo, and the 16-D is a coin with a high percentage of counterfits.

Copperhead: You need to RUN as fast as possible away from this auction....NOW. I don't know or CARE if it is real, there are PLENTY of authenticated 16-D's out there to purchase.

"As is" by butt.

Catch22

All sales are final!
This coin is neither rare or difficult to obtain. Why in the world would anyone take a chance with 1500 bucks? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"We took this coin out of a holder" Why? (Was it a 2x2 holder!?!) This auction looks really weird to me. I wouldn't touch it.

Cleaned? Or is is just the picture?

Everything looks wrong here..IMHO

Because they can use the logo from PCGS's website next to their "coin rating" instead.

The picture is too small to get a good look at the mint mark and date. With no return I would pass on it.

Well,
This is the response I sort of expected. Not to much positive about buying this coin I suppose. I guess I was just wishing on a star. Eventually I will get a nice one. THANKS to all for the responses. This board makes the final decision. But, I will still watch it, I just won't buy it.
THANKS AGAIN,
AL

Can't get a good enough look at that mint mark to see if it meets the diagnostics for genuine coin. I agree with others who suggest the bait is not worth taking.

Take this advice to the bank. Exceedingly deceptive examples of 16D dimes exist. Never, ever, ever,
buy a 16D uncertified.

The MUST BE "certified" thing is a bit much, but I would never consider buying a coin like that without first being able to view it in person. I would study the diagnostics for a genuine specimen, know the forms of counterfeits that are out there, and look at the coin with my own two eyes and make a judgement...it doesn't HAVE to be certified, but I would HAVE to look at the coin itself (not an image) before buying.

No thank you.

There are some coins that should never be bought raw. This is one of them.

Dimetime

Once again, the 16-d is a suckers deal unless in a third party case. PCGS is my preference. Why would you take out a $4000 coin out of a holder? Avoid this and buy a certified dime. Mercs Rule
