Fell upon this 1961 Roosevelt dime. It looks particular in that the strike seems to be inverted all the way around the edges including the backside wondering if anybody has come across this particular kind of strike on a dime before. Never seen one so perfectly struck around like this. Was wondering what you guys would know about this particular coin thanks! * Moved by Staff moved to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

verusfides New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 06:18 am Thank you so much Fuzzy317 Mod, and also is there anything you could possibly make of this particular? I've been looking around for 1961 Dime errors before I even thought about posting it just to make sure I wasn't being over the top on my post haha. Report this Post to the Staff

verusfides New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 06:26 am Will try to see if I can get a better post up. Ok, if you guys can see on the LIBERTY focus your eyes on the T do you see how the striking seems to be inverted? That goes all the way around. As for the reverse if you focus your eyes on the ONE it looks like a double die but that is a striking that is inverted. Looked very odd to me. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75147 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 08:44 am What you have here is a damaged coin. It's Post Strike Damage, since it happened after it left the U.S. Mint. The metal has been pushed over and flattened. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21655 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 08:56 am Hard to tell from those photos but it looks like the reverse rim has been ground down. No matter what the cause, it's PMD. When posting pictures please orient facing up and crop close to rim as per Posting instructions. https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...g-images.asp Report this Post to the Staff

Coconutjoe Pillar of the Community United States 1475 Posts	Posted 07/15/2018 12:27 pm Best I could do using the pics. Looks like the edge has been shaved or grinded off. Edited by Coconutjoe 07/15/2018 12:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff
