Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 9:59 pm I am no expert on errors, but I believe if the reverse is normal, that would indicate MAD (misaligned dies). If the reverse was misaligned the same, that would be an off center strike. Report this Post to the Staff

coinaki Valued Member United States 207 Posts	Posted 08/16/2013 01:45 am Is this dime thinner all around the edge, or just on one section? If on one section, is it near the area behind the head? Report this Post to the Staff

Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 08/16/2013 10:19 am It is a MAD struck coin. Very common on these roosevelts. The extra thickness is because the rim edges are slightly raised. Caused by the strike. Report this Post to the Staff
