ChildOfTheWheat Pillar of the Community United States 5828 Posts	Posted 07/18/2015 11:23 am This dime is not a reverse proof, or a proof for that matter. Just remember that Denver never struck proof coins, and in 1970 proof coins were being struck by Sanfransico. Report this Post to the Staff
kanga3375 Valued Member United States 90 Posts	Posted 07/18/2015 11:27 am I asked this question because in the book strike it rich it shows a 1970D with a proof rev. Report this Post to the Staff
stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 07/18/2015 12:15 pm In 1969 and 1970 there were dimes produced with the same style reverse as was used on the proof coins of 1968. The pickup point is the deeper grooves in the flame on the reverse. Starting in 71 all business strike dimes had this revese. The 1969 is the hard one to find. The OP's coin is the 68 proof style reverse Report this Post to the Staff
Dave42 Pillar of the Community United States 571 Posts	Posted 07/18/2015 1:36 pm I think the "rarity" of the 1970 and 1970-D of these are overrated. I don't go through dimes often, but when I find a 70 or 70-D, it's about a 50/50 chance for me on finding one of these. The 1969 however, I have not ever found, so I think that is probably quite hard to find. Report this Post to the Staff
