Hello,
What are your thoughts on this 1987 P Dime? Specifically the "textured" fields and the mint mark. The texture appears "under" the devices and extends from the center outward in all directions. The texture itself is made up of parallel lines- one is right by the mint mark which makes this an "R" dime! Cool, I know. There is also a circular mark visible through liberty. This marks the edge of a very slightly raised bump on the obverse- as though it were pressed by a smaller diameter object. Comments are appreciated. Thanks for looking.

| I started collecting a little over a year ago and have no idea what I am doing. I thought those lines were good because they came from the mint like that. Sorry if my unattractive coin wasted your time. It took me a long time to make those pics because that is what I thought I was supposed to do. Thanks for the "constructive criticism" everyone. can't wait to post on again here. |

| Thanks for all the comments. I have one in better shape, so I am going to work out the lighting issue, get full size pics and some closer shots of the rim. Let me know if you have any other uploading suggestions. @Badthar: I'm actually looking into storage options now. I got these from my neighbor who kept them in rolls. I've got some knock off Air Tight containers but I'm afraid the coins will bounce around too much. I'm kinda thinking about placing some paper tissue in there if I send any off to grade? Or cutting up some other packing materials to fit. |

A lot of people on here recommended the book "Strike it Rich with Pocket Change" by Ken Potter and Brian Allen, so I picked up a copy and all I can say is that it's either flawed or I have an "error book". Anyone else notice some problems with it?
