Sell Mercury Dimes in Lincoln Park, MI — Top Cash Paid at Westland Exchange

Mercury dimes (1916–1945) are 90% silver and one of the most beautiful American designs. Most are common-date silver, but the 1916-D is a legitimate rarity and full-split-bands examples carry big premiums. We check dates and mint marks before any Mercury dime is treated as bullion.

Lincoln Park sits about 14 miles from our counter — roughly 22 minutes door to door. Take Southfield Fwy north to Warren Ave, then west. If you are starting near Lincoln Park Historical Museum and Council Point Park, it is a straight, easy run with no downtown traffic to fight.

Lincoln Park customers reach us in about 20 minutes. We're a full-service pawn shop — loans, buying and selling — with fair Michigan-regulated terms.

Selling mercury dimes here rather than shipping it away means you see the scale, you see the test, and you leave with cash in hand instead of waiting on a mailed check from an out-of-state refiner. Lincoln Park customers do this every week, and most of them tell us the drive was shorter than they expected.

We are open monday – friday 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM and saturday 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM. Bring a valid photo ID — Michigan law requires it for any pawn or purchase — along with the mercury dimes itself, and the whole visit usually takes a few minutes.

FAQ

Selling mercury dimes in Lincoln Park — answered.

Is the 1916-D Mercury dime really that valuable?+

Yes — it's a genuine key date worth far more than silver in any condition. It's also heavily counterfeited, so we authenticate carefully before quoting.

Are all Mercury dimes silver?+

Yes, every Mercury dime from 1916 to 1945 is 90% silver.

Should I get my dimes graded before selling?+
