Hello everyone found a unusual Dime in my bank roll today, a 1988 S which has a proof like finish. Clad, so not silver but a nice find! There were 3,262,949 minted in San Francisco. So look at the pics and let me know your thoughts and regards.

Yes a good find. I save impaired proofs in 2x2s.

allcoinsaregood's photos are overreflective, in this case that obscures the expected cameo
