ChristinaD09 New Member United States 10 Posts	Posted 06/17/2023 8:54 pm I am now looking at each and every ounce of change I get back. I came across this 2017 D dime. Wondering if the damage on back is human made or Machine made? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34457 Posts	Posted 06/17/2023 9:03 pm @chr, those scratches and flattening are damage rather than being a mint error. This coin would be a spender for me.

halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1510 Posts	Posted 06/17/2023 9:26 pm Definitely PMD due to the dime being scraped across something abrasive. Note the scratches on the obverse as well. Report this Post to the Staff

Dutch-Tigger Valued Member United States 301 Posts	Posted 06/18/2023 08:58 am PMD Agree, there are an infinitesimal amount of way`s that people will damage coins and no lack of imagination. The best way not to waste your time of such inconsequential things on coins is to research the processes of how Die`s are created and the minting process of the coin its self. Here is a fantastic place to start. https://www.usmint.gov/learn/produc...s/die-making Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 06/18/2023 3:28 pm to the CCF and One thing to remember is when you have a gouge, scratch, or trough with a corresponding buildup of metal, 99.9% of the time it's damage. Report this Post to the Staff
