Picked the odd little guy up today at collect-o-ramma show in fl.

No clue but who does like a mystery

2.02 Grams the weight on the thin 1964 Roosevelt dime
2.51 Grams the weight on the normal 1964 Roosevelt dime

Any input, info, comments or suggestions...

I'm certainly not the expert about this, but when I was going through my grandfather's Mercury dimes, I noticed the really worn down ones were thinner. That one looks somewhat worn, so that could be the case. Just my Two Cents...

the photos dont do it justice... I was was going to write that the pictures has lines pattern even on the untouched top parts and lower part that make it look worn but I dont believe it is but maybe it is the texture of material. note in hand it looks more like how a grease die is.

It might be a tapered planchet? Note the same weakness on both sides of the thinner area?

Could it have been in one of those lucky token holders?The coin looks like damage caused by the holder that I have seen before.
