Value: As a rough estimate of this coins value you can assume this coin in average condition will be valued at somewhere around $3, while one in certified mint state (MS+) condition could bring as much as $80 at auction. This price does not reference any standard coin grading scale. So when we say average, we mean in a similar condition to other coins issued in 1936, and mint state meaning it is certified MS+ by one of the top coin grading companies. [?].
Additional Info: There were around 4,000 proofs issued as part of the larger 87 million 1936 (p) mercury dimes. If you can find one for less than 2 thousand dollars in perfect shape it would be priced about right. When buying or selling Mercury Dimes full bands are key.
Numismatic vs Intrinsic Value:This coin in poor condition is still worth $1.03 more than the intrinsic value from silver content of $1.97, this coin is thus more valuable to a collector than to a silver bug. Coins worth more to a collectors may be a better long term investment. If the metal prices drop you will still have a coin that a numismatic would want to buy.
