Finally, after ripping down almost all of the walls in the house, we found the money. Unfortunately, there wasn’t quite as much of it as we had hoped, but we still found the discovery thrilling. Here it is, a 1939 D Silver Mercury Dime. Pretty cool. I don’t ever remember seeing one before, or even knowing that they existed. Based on some brief searching, this not-so shiny dime could be worth anywhere from 10¢ to $5.00 (max for an un-circulated dime). The mostly likely estimate that I could find said that most are only worth the amount of silver that they contain.
It might not pay for a new heating/cooling system, but it certainly made us smile. Isn’t that worth enough?
