grancap74 Valued Member United States 289 Posts	Posted 05/24/2013 6:33 pm This was in one of our inherited coin bags. We are not very familiar with this series and don't know how to label it. To me it looks as though it happened with the die being the shoe is still visible. Is this a coin that would be advisable to go to TPG? Thank you for any knowledge and help with this.

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 05/24/2013 6:56 pm Fascinating coin. I agree; this looks like a lamination which flaked off, leaving some detail behind like the shoe and the end of the stone. That was the side which was originally split, and it fractured over near the rim which is why the lettering disappeared completely. The error isn't something that needs a TPG to verify, and otherwise this common-date coin isn't worthy. Report this Post to the Staff
grancap74 Valued Member United States 289 Posts	Posted 05/24/2013 7:35 pm Thank you SuperDave. We'll keep it either way, thought it was quite interesting. Looks quite a bit better in hand. At least that will save me another submission. Report this Post to the Staff

This one will sell itself if the time comes, and it's a pretty radical example of a lamination if it's of interest to you. You won't find many deeper. Report this Post to the Staff

grancap74 Valued Member United States 289 Posts	Posted 05/25/2013 2:32 pm Matthew, thank you for the link. I really enjoy learning about all the coins we have. My level of knowledge is so low on many I have sometimes I feel foolish posting some items, LOL. I'm always grateful for all the help and experience here. Report this Post to the Staff
matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 05/25/2013 2:39 pm My pleasure, grancap74. There are other sites besides the CCF, not many that I would recommend. This is one such site. Most certainly, hang onto this dime for a while. It is ... quite curious. Report this Post to the Staff
