wert Rest in Peace 1988 Posts	Posted 10/19/2012 5:03 pm What I meant pennysaver is that the red arrows show a flat and equal depression on the coin. The yellow arrows shows a ridge that is much higher than the depressions and is all the way around the coin on both sides. Report this Post to the Staff
pennysaver Pillar of the Community Canada 937 Posts	Posted 10/19/2012 7:29 pm Hmm... I don't think I've seen a rim like that before, or at least I've never noticed one. I'll have to check mine to see if I find anything similar. And the cause -- dies not meeting properly? A new design? There are far more knowledgable CCF members than I am out there who can come up with a solution to this mystery. Thanks for sharing your coin with us, wert! Report this Post to the Staff
pennysaver Pillar of the Community Canada 937 Posts	Posted 10/21/2012 10:43 am hi wert I just went through the change on my nightstand and found 5 2011 dimes -- 4 of which had the line running through the outside reeding and all had that "railwayway effect". I think that they must be more common than we thought. :( Report this Post to the Staff
