Ceylon62 Pillar of the Community United States 1285 Posts	Posted 02/13/2011 08:54 am Has anyone come across any 2010 P dimes that have "grease filled" effects on the obverse / reverse? No Pics as I could not capture it well. The faint effect is visible to the naked eye -- The "date" and face (in front of the nose) area's have something going on. Some of the coins have the same "skid mark" type issue on the reverse as well. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Ceylon62 Pillar of the Community United States 1285 Posts	Posted 02/16/2011 06:17 am This is the best I can do by way of a Pic and is not PMD as I have 3 more coins that have similar effects but in different locations. This is the only coin where it is very prominent / large area affected on both sides of the coin. Also the surface area is somewhat "dull" / lack of finish. The coins "probably" have been touched by a 2 or 3 folks in circulation (high grade au / bu-) Any idea's? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 02/20/2011 3:30 pm Since every years coinage will have some examples of Grease Filled Dies (natural consequence of needing to lubricate the moving metal parts of the press and the planchets), there woiuld be no special significance to it occurring on a 2010 P dime. Even if none of us can come up with an example the odds are an almost certainty that they exist. Report this Post to the Staff

RollHunter Pillar of the Community United States 687 Posts	Posted 02/21/2011 12:06 am Neither 2010 dimes nor nickels are worth saving - way too common. I've found entire boxes of each. 2009 nickels are a different story for the short term at least. Report this Post to the Staff
