San Francisco did not have a over date for a 1942 dime only P & D had them
The US Mint did produce any dimes in 1819.
Roosevelt dimes dated 1968 and after have the mint mark on the obverse (heads) side, just above the date.
About 80 cents to $1 for the silver it contains. It doesn't have a P below the date for 3 reasons: 1. Philadelphia only started to use the P mint mark on dimes in 1980. 2. Dimes minted in 1964 and earlier had the mint mark on the back, not the front. 3. The mint mark on dimes dated 1968 and later is above the date, not below.
In 1990, the Philadelphia mint struck 1,034,340,000 dimes, the Denver mint struck 839,995,824 dimes and the San Francisco mint struck 3,299,559 proof dimes for a total of 1,877,635,463.
It depends on the coin's date.1. Philadelphia only started to use the P mint mark on dimes in 1980. Any dime minted in Philadelphia between 1965 and 1979 won't have a mint mark and is only worth ten cents.2. Dimes minted in 1964 and earlier had the mint mark on the back, not the front, but again, Philadelphia didn't use a mint mark. These dimes were 90% silver so they're worth at least $1.40 for their silver value, but may be worth more to a collector.3. The mint mark on dimes dated 1968 and later is abovethe date, not below.
Philadelphia. With the exception of nickels dated 1942-1945, coins minted in Philadelphia didn't have a mint mark until 1979 for dollars and 1980 for halves, quarters, dimes, and nickels.
It's not that simple. It depends on the coin's date and condition. Sometimes Mercury dimes from Denver are the most valuable, sometimes San Francisco. See the link page below for prices by mint mark and condition.
U.S. dimes were 90% silver through 1964. The only nickels to ever contain silver are "war nickels," dated 1942-1945, distinguished by the large mint mark on the back.
yes. between the Denver mint and the Philadelphia mint, over 700 million dimes were made.
In general no. Prior to 1980 only the D&S mintmark's were used. Coins struck at the Philadelphia Mint did not use a mintmark. From 1980 to date the Mint added a "P" mintmark. But some Proof sets have Dimes that lack a S mintmark, they do have much higher values.
Yes, many. > Any dime dated 1964 or earlier is made of a 90% silver alloy so its melt value is about 0.07 times the current price of 1 troy ounce of silver. > Early-date Roosevelt dimes and nearly all Mercury dimes have a collector value of at least $2 or $3. Mercury dimes' values can be considerably higher, depending on their date, mint mark, and condition. > Older dimes (Barber, Liberty seated, etc.) can bring a significant premium depending again on date, mint mark, and condition.
Such a coin does not exist. A "dime" is the slang term for a US 10 cent coin. The Royal Mint has never produced "dimes" or 10 cent coins.
