thq Pillar of the Community United States 3343 Posts	Posted 06/20/2013 11:56 pm No need to post a picture it it's marked "restrike". The US Mint did officially restrike a few coins (usually rarities) but the 1871 was not one of them. Weigh yours to see whether it has any silver value, if it's lighter than 26g it's probably base metal. "Two minutes ago I would have sold my chances for a tired dime."
