arianzo Pillar of the Community Canada 2124 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 11:30 am I want to know if the 2012 dime is composed of: 92.0% steel , 5.5% copper and 2.5% nickel plating why this seller indicate that is 0.9999 silver? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Canada-2012...370936114518 Report this Post to the Staff

john100 Pillar of the Community Canada 5324 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 12:15 pm I think there was a 2012 silver proof set made around the time of the war of 1812 coins releases, this dime maybe from this set? Report this Post to the Staff
arianzo Pillar of the Community Canada 2124 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 12:45 pm So it's a NCLT RCM product? Report this Post to the Staff
john100 Pillar of the Community Canada 5324 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 12:48 pm yes if I remember correctly? Report this Post to the Staff
kuh_85 Pillar of the Community Canada 2366 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 3:38 pm Yes, the frosting indicates it's from a proof set. In 2012 there was both a pure nickel proof set (except the silver dollar) and a pure silver proof set issued). Report this Post to the Staff
Alex A Pillar of the Community 710 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 4:47 pm Is there any way to tell the silver proof from the nickel proof without having them both in hand? Report this Post to the Staff
stampvirgin Pillar of the Community United States 1247 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 5:41 pm it looks like the silver version, however the self grading is against ebay rules. Report this Post to the Staff
purelywasted Pillar of the Community Canada 1505 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 6:56 pm It is from ASYN, who notoriously over grades, so don't expect a 67. I have bought silver proof from him before, never been concerned about silver vs. nickle being mixed up, but the grading is high and will likely have a fingerprint or two on coin. The scans often look worse than the coin actually is. Report this Post to the Staff
lesinwestvan Valued Member Canada 133 Posts	Posted 11/09/2013 9:49 pm This 2012 dime is the dime from the Premium Proof Set. All coins in this set were struck in fine silver including the Loonie. Report this Post to the Staff
