Walking Liberty collection update — 48 coins in
Been collecting Mercury dimes for about 5 months. Up to 31 coins. Favorites so far: - 1886 Philly - 1926-S
The toning on some of these keeps me coming back. Anyone else collect this series?

Nice start on the Mercs! I'm working on a Whitman folder myself - up to about 60 coins. That 1886 Philly is a good date. The toning on some of these old dimes is amazing, especially the rainbow toned ones. Have you found any of the key dates yet like the 16-D?
Not really my thing but my dad collected coins. Think he had some of those Mercury dimes in a folder somewhere. More of a gun guy myself but I can appreciate the history aspect.
Wait... you said Walking Liberty collection but then mentioned Mercury dimes? Either way, both are great series. I see tons of Mercs at the Philly area shows - that 1926-S is a good find! The key dates in that series will cost you but the common dates are still affordable. Keep filling those holes!
Great info here. Bookmarking this thread for later.
