Rocky B Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/21/2026 5:28 pm Thanks for replying! It weighs 1.9, I read that 1.9 is how much a partial missing clad layer should weigh. Report this Post to the Staff
Rocky B Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/21/2026 5:32 pm Is the reverse a major Struck Through Grease? I was looking at major Struck Through Grease errors to try to match it up with this one, a lot of major STG looked like it. But it probably is damaged. Report this Post to the Staff

Mrhakfbacon Pillar of the Community United States 582 Posts	Posted 02/21/2026 6:00 pm Not struck thru- extremely damaged, probably sanded or as in a dryer. 100% PMD (damaged) Report this Post to the Staff
Rocky B Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/21/2026 6:39 pm OK, thanks! I just had to make sure I'm not spending a valuable error coin! Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15472 Posts	Posted 02/21/2026 6:42 pm Quote: I just had to make sure I'm not spending a valuable error coin! I suggest you would be fortunate to spend this severely damaged dime in any retail transaction - it's so trashed that vendors might reject it. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
Rocky B Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/21/2026 7:38 pm I might just keep it for my PMD collection! Report this Post to the Staff

Rocky B Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/22/2026 1:53 pm How is it thinner than a normal dime? Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21627 Posts	Posted 02/22/2026 4:51 pm Quote: How is it thinner than a normal dime? Because as explained earlier, both sides have been ground down which would make it thinner. Report this Post to the Staff
Rocky B Valued Member United States 109 Posts	Posted 02/22/2026 5:41 pm Why would someone drop it on the ground at a store? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34426 Posts	Posted 02/22/2026 7:01 pm Quote: Why would someone drop it on the ground at a store? Accidental drop? winging it at a friend for fun?
