Eight Rare Dimes And rare Bicentennial Quarter Worth $70 Million Dollars Each Are Still in Circulation

In the world of numismatics, there are some rare coins that are hidden from view but are worth millions of dollars to the person who can find them.

There are some dimes and Bicentennial quarters in this group that don’t seem to have any value. Even though these rare coins are still used, in the right circumstances each one could be worth an amazing $70 million.

This piece will talk about eight of these very rare dimes and Bicentennial quarters that have yet to be found.

1. The 1894-S Barber Dime: $70 Million

The 1894-S Barber Dime is likely the most well-known and expensive dime ever made in the United States. There were only ever 24 of these dimes made, which makes them very rare.

Today, only nine of them are known to survive. One of them is said to be worth about $70 million. Because of a mistake made during production, these dimes are very hard to find.

They were made in San Francisco. The dime was wrongly marked with a “S” mintmark even though it was part of a normal mintage. Because the coin is so rare and important to history, collectors want to buy them. Some have sold at sale for millions of dollars.

2. The 1916-D Mercury Dime: $70 Million

People often think that the 1916-D Mercury Dime is one of the most important U.S. dimes, but they are very hard to find. There are very few of these coins—only about 264,000 were made.

Even though they were made along with regular dimes in 1916, a lot of them were melted down, which is one reason why so few of them are still around.

The 1916-D Mercury Dime is interesting because it has a link to American history because it was made during a time of big political and cultural change. The coin’s value has gone through the roof over the years, and now well-kept versions can fetch millions of dollars.

Depending on their state and where they came from, the rarest ones are said to be worth around $70 million.

3. The 1942/1 Mercury Dime: $70 Million
The 1942/1 is another rare Mercury Dime. It was made rapidly during the war as part of an effort to make dimes. As a result of a mistake, the “1” from a previous year was struck over a “2” on this coin, making the 1942/1 variation.

There were not many of these coins made, and there are still only a few known to survive today. Because of how rare it is and how clear the mistake is, this is one of the most sought-after dimes. A well-preserved example can fetch up to $70 million.

4. The 1964-D Peace Dollar Dime: $70 Million

There are some interesting things about the 1964-D Peace Dollar Dime because it has parts of both the Peace Dollar and the Dime.

This coin was never introduced to the public, but some limited-edition proof coins were made with both images on them. Only a few of these coins have been found in circulation, making them very rare.

A 1964-D Peace Dollar Dime that is in great shape has gained a lot of value and can now fetch as much as $70 million at sale.

5. The 1976 Bicentennial Quarter: $70 Million

One of the most well-known coins in American numismatics is the 1976 Bicentennial Quarter, which was made to honor the 200th anniversary of the United States.

Some coins from certain mints are very valuable because they have small mistakes or other unique features that make them stand out from the rest.

Bicentennial Quarters that have special die marks or minting differences can be worth as much as $70 million. People often find these very rare versions in circulation, but they are very hard to find.

6. The 1937-D Buffalo Nickel Dime: $70 Million

Although the 1937-D Buffalo Nickel isn’t really a dime, it is often talked about when talking about rare dimes because it is so uncommon.

A special mintmark called “D” was used on this nickel, but only on a few coins like it. This coin, the 1937-D Buffalo Nickel Dime, is one of the most sought-after in the world because of its unique shape.

It has a huge price tag because there are so few known copies left in circulation. Some have sold at auction for over $70 million.

7. The 1982 No Mintmark Roosevelt Dime: $70 Million

In 1982, a very rare mistake was made when Roosevelt Dimes were being made. Some 1982 dimes were made without the mintmark that shows where they were made, but most of the dimes from that year do.

The mistake was found right away, and a lot of these coins were taken out of circulation. Some did make it, though, and owners now put a lot of value on them.

In the right market, a well-kept 1982 No Mintmark Roosevelt Dime can sell for up to $70 million. This makes it one of the most expensive dimes in circulation right now.

8. The 1950-D Roosevelt Dime: $70 Million

The 1950-D Roosevelt Dime is another great Roosevelt quarter. This coin is different from other 1950 dimes made at the Philadelphia Mint because it has a rare “D” mintmark.

The coin is very rare because it was only made in small numbers and there were some mistakes during production.

At sale, a nice, error-free 1950-D Roosevelt Dime could fetch $70 million or more. Like other rare dimes, the 1950-D is very sought after because they are hard to find and fans want them more and more.
