CharPDX214 Valued Member United States 122 Posts	Posted 02/26/2023 11:32 am Good morning Coin Community. I have a Roosevelt dime here that I would like assistance with. In the pictures posted it looks as if the letters in USA look different than other dimes I have of this year. Would this be because of circulation damage/surface flattening? I also have questions and regards to the front of this coin, but I figured five photos is enough for one post. Thank you for your time and knowledge. Report this Post to the Staff

Look up dei deterioration at error-ref.com Also if you have never seen how they makes dies. The following info is interesting and will be good for additional info for determining actual die errors. https://www.coinnews.net/2014/01/06...oduce-coins/ How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
