I think it is an early-stage Dryer Coin. (not in the dryer to long) Or what is called a spooned coin |

Yes I have read it twice and don't see my dime explained because I don't see any of the coin edge rolled back and for what I understand is that spooned id someone hammering the edge smooth and if that was the case then please tell me why the size of my dime the same size as a normal dime because with those explanations the dime would be smaller not same or bigger or thicker than normal and if it does make it bigger in any form please explain to me how this can be possible unless it fuses with another coin in some weird unexplained way LOL like the gremlin that steals your socks LOL

Early stage Dryer Coin, it didn't stay in the mechanism long enough to do much more than smooth the reeded edge. |

Agreed, an early stage Dryer Coin. PMD. It's a spender, since it's not an error. Errers and Varietys.

It's not a Dryer Coin, but it is damaged. The coin was rolled and squeezed in the horizontal plane by a hand-cranked or motor-driven mechanical device. This flattened the edge and obliterated the reeding. Error coin writer and researcher.

Mikediamond in that scenario it should be smaller in Diameter than a normal dime right because this one is not smaller but if you say it is what it is then I guess it is that. Thanks everybody for all your input
