How much is a 1916 S Mercury Dime worth?
In Average Circulated (AC) condition it's worth around $4.00, one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $505 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say Average Circulated, we mean in a similar condition to other coins circulated in 1916, and mint state meaning it is certified MS+ by one of the top coin grading companies. *** [?].
