Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6642 Posts	Posted Yesterday 10:00 pm Ran across this dime in a roll. The obverse rim is basically non-existent. The other features are struck relatively well. The reverse seems to be a late die state, and the lower rims are also mostly missing. The reeds are weakly struck. I thought it might be a thin planchet, but the mass is right on the nose at 2.27g. My best guess is a weak strike, but it's a bit odd that the central devices are so well struck.

It's very common on these 1985 -D Dimes for some reason. https://goccf.com/t/458622 Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6642 Posts	Posted Yesterday 10:11 pm Well, that's a new one to me! Glad you've got such a good memory for these unusual errors. =) I agree, it does look just like the other 1985-D dimes with inadequate upset. Report this Post to the Staff
