RES Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 12/31/2012 5:54 pm I just picked up a 1946 Roosevelt dime today. I bought it off of ebay, but it wouldn't take my shipping address. I ended up driving about 20 minutes out of my way today to pick it up. The guy wouldn't even take the money, so it ended up being free. My question is, Is this an error coin? The six is barely visable even though it hasn't been rubbed off. The W in We is actually on the rim. What are your thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff

RES Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 12/31/2012 8:07 pm You can't tell very well in these pictures, but the rim of the coin is fully intact. There is no wear through that area. Report this Post to the Staff

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 01/03/2013 5:20 pm Hey, for free a nice find. A silver dime plus first year of issue. Personally, I wish they had put Teddy's face on the coin instead. Report this Post to the Staff
RES Valued Member United States 252 Posts	Posted 01/04/2013 05:17 am Alright, so what would everyone grade this one at? I'm still getting my feet wet on grading and I know that I grade higher than I should. Report this Post to the Staff
