CENTertainment Valued Member United States 216 Posts	Posted 04/08/2013 6:46 pm I did a little CRH'ing during my lunch break today and got $10 in dimes. I was very excited to find a 1944 Mercury but also found something else interesting...a 2007 P where the edge is smooth along the outer border. I did a web search and it looks like I may not be the only one. Is this a common error? * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

KisNap Valued Member United States 462 Posts	Posted 04/08/2013 7:38 pm Just curious. What makes you say that 1993 coins are more likely to get into a dryer and become a Dryer Coin than other coins? Report this Post to the Staff

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 04/09/2013 4:40 pm I also think that a few pics of the coin first would help. Need to see if the reeding is completely missing and also if the coin was an off center strike or a misaligned die strike. I have found many broadstruck clad roosevelt's over the years. May be one, may not. Report this Post to the Staff
solotime Pillar of the Community United States 2311 Posts	Posted 04/09/2013 8:30 pm @KisNap, because I have seen more 1993 dryer damaged than any other date. It's like 90% of the time the rim is round it's dryer damage. I have been reading information about it and from other coin sites. Report this Post to the Staff
