KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 07/27/2008 02:14 am Hi, it's what's called a " Dryer Coin". It may have been lost in a commercial drier, and over time the rims on the coin were slowly beaten in towards the center. Whatever happened exactly, it happened outside the RCM.

malissadawn Pillar of the Community Topic Starter Canada 1931 Posts	Posted 07/27/2008 02:33 am so as a Dryer Coin, the edges would come in that deeply and perfectly like that? There are no ridges along the outside edge like there are supposed to be, it's completely smooth. Report this Post to the Staff
snaz Valued Member Canada 351 Posts	Posted 07/27/2008 02:51 am I disagree.. IMO its a detector find.. or just tumbled or whizzed, then spooned. usually found in silver halves, but why not a dime? Report this Post to the Staff
malissadawn Pillar of the Community Topic Starter Canada 1931 Posts	Posted 07/27/2008 02:55 am ok, I don't know what any of that meant LOL sorry. I do know the term whizzed.......but tumbled or spooned? Report this Post to the Staff
KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 07/27/2008 03:51 am I just guessed it was a " Dryer Coin" since it's not silver and the fields were worn too...post-mint, whatever happened. Report this Post to the Staff
snaz Valued Member Canada 351 Posts	Posted 07/27/2008 12:06 pm malissa, whizzed is when you take a whizzer to the coin, spin it down to wear the coin down, and spooning is when you take a spoon and tap the out side of the coin continuously all around the outside of the coin, until teh ridge comes completley smooth and it starts to fold and widen. (just like your picture)heres a link.. http://www.coinworld.com/news/032408/BW_0324.asp Report this Post to the Staff
