Coins missing a vital mintmark are not a dime a dozen. But these rare dimes circulating Bucks County could be worth $1,000.

Coins missing a vital mintmark are not a dime a dozen. But these rare dimes circulating Bucks County could actually be worth $1,000, writes Greg Vellner for The Reporter.  

Sellersville collector Michael Leven says that “quite a few people in the area have come across them.”  

Leven said that a fellow coin dealer found more than 1,500 of these rare dimes.  

 If picked out of circulation, these dimes could spike from ten cents to $100. But if a dime is found uncirculated or a “certified superb gem”, it could be up to $1,000.  

These dimes are missing a small P to the right of the date, a mistake made in 1982 at The Philadelphia Mint.
