yes, a clad dime of 1967 should weight 2.27g. if missing one clad layer, it will weigh around 1.9g, and if missing both and only the copper core it would weigh.around 1.5g/

Yes, I metal detect and that is classic environmental damage. The coppery color doesn't just clean off, they generally have to be run in a tumbler to do it.

AKA "Black Beauties" that's the slang term for these.

This is not a black beauty. This is environmental staining. A BB is an annealing problem.

There is a coating that eventually will come on of the coin. It wears off the highest points first, the fields are last to remove the color. The color will change from brown to black in color, but eventually comes off looking very dull on the coin. Not a plus for the coin:

The color you have it is characteristic with acidic environment damages, like mentioned already. In my early reply I give the composition of the clad. This one react like this in time and acidic environment.

To me, all coins are special, but most coins are especially common.

And a damaged coin is now a cull coin. Just face value now.
