OK, I had a pile of dime laying around for a week or so. I picked 4 of them up this morning to just to stack them. What I thought at first was a penny was in the stack. I kept looking for the penny,, LOL,,, Not really paying attention. WEll,,, this is what I found. I am assuming it is a dryer coin,,, Kids think it is pretty Kool. What do you guys think. This was found in a roll of coins I got from the bank though,,, LOL,,, Thanks in Advance...         |

It's not a dryer coin, but it was certainly damaged outside the Mint. Error coin writer and researcher.

I've seen this type of damage done with a copper pipe reducing tool. No idea if someone was trying to make a fake error or was just bored.
