GenericNameHere New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 01/26/2007 4:23 pm Okay, I would consider myself quite the amateur coin collector, so I don't know much on what things are worth. And seeing as most errored coins aren't in books I don't have a clue on what is common or uncommon. If you guys could would you please advise me on this dime I have? Is it errored? Is it uncommon? Note the 1 in 71 is very faint or almost gone. Obverse Close up Reverse Reverse Close Up Also, what do you guys think o mys shots? Do they show enough detail? Are they clear? Was the red binder backdrop okay? Report this Post to the Staff

Metalman Pillar of the Community United States 7123 Posts	Posted 01/26/2007 5:15 pm The date looks like a filled die strike,, this is where part of the design detail becomes clogged with grease ,metal shavings and or other substances . however the rest of coin lettering shows some signs of being weakly struck as well,, so the date maybe a result of both circumstances filled and weakly struck. They are pretty common and do not carry any added value in most cases. Metalman Edited by Metalman 01/26/2007 6:17 pm Report this Post to the Staff
