I showed him the coin and asked if he could make it like new. He said they had a chemical they could put on it that would clean it right up. I went back several days later to pick it up, and it was ruined. Bright and shiny, yes, but it was like the chemicals ate the face off the coin. I told him to keep it, because I wasn't paying $35 for a ruined coin!

You have found a 1916 d dime in really, really good shape. If I were you, I wouldn't do anything to it, but sell it. The coin cost you nothing but a trip to the park; it will cost the next owner thousands of dollars. Let him do with it as he pleases as far as cleaning. As long as you have it, you have "ten cents". Yes, you can call it money in the bank, but its still ten cents until you sell it, and then its thousands of dollars in your pocket... see how simple I think? You could hold it for five, ten or thirty years in hopes of getting more for it later but with inflation, I believe you get the same today as you would 25 years for now. You can find out after grading what the coin is worth. Find a buyer for that price or better and sell it, then take a vacation, buy a used Harley, or use it as a down on a new Dodge truck with a Hemi in it.

... in a safety deposit box until sold or passed on to family or friends ... just make sure you CLEARLY identify it in your storage place as a hugely valuable coin that "used to be worth just 10 cents", now worth ... ??????? .... whatever the highest bidder pays.
