It's Post Strike Damage ( PSD). I think what happened here, is they dipped the 1935 LWC in acid, to make it the same size as a Mercury dime, and then somehow mated the reverse of a Mercury dime together. (Kinda reminds me of a Magicians coin.) Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/18/2018 1:53 pm It can be used in a magic act. The trickster will say. See this coin. I can turn it into another coin. Turns the coin over and now it is a different denomination. Report this Post to the Staff

Well they made them back when wheat cents and Mercury dimes were circulating too. Report this Post to the Staff
