wrestling_135 Pillar of the Community United States 802 Posts	Posted 02/04/2012 02:23 am I don't know much about errors, but I have a bunch of brand new 2011 dimes, and then I got this one in there. The side looks brand new like the others, but it looks smeared, I think it's a lamination error? If so is there any value to this :D Report this Post to the Staff

It looks like the one on this website... I think. http://www.jimscoins.net/error_coin_examples.php Report this Post to the Staff
