I am new to this so any help would be much appreciated. Let me know if you need more photos Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Others with better qualifications will be along soon to weigh in. It might help to remove the coin from the plastic sleeve and take a couple more photos.

balakay123 New Member United States 30 Posts	Posted 04/06/2020 09:54 am Sorry I thought a dime planchet because of all the random lettering. I think it is struck multiple times. You can see Lincoln's head very easily here. There is also a ton of double die on reverse Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34441 Posts	Posted 04/06/2020 10:04 am @b123, sorry but I'm not seeing any evidence of multiple strikes, an off-metal planchet, doubling, or any other mint error. There is some off surface staining, but that is it I think. While of course we are happy to provide our opinions to you on any coin that you have, please consider taking some time to study mint errors over on the error-ref.com website.
