Howdy,

I just started collection coins at my new job when I was sorting through bags of dimes and happened to come across an 1873 Seated Liberty dime, after that moment, I was hooked. I frequently browse all the common sites when inquiring into the value, condition, or rarity of the coins I come across, but recently I have found that I have reached the limits of what I can find elsewhere. And so, here I am. Hoping to stump/ interest you guys with some of the weird things I come across that I cant seem to identify as fraud, error, or something else.

For starters, take this dime for instance.

Greetings-From-Ohio

Thoughts?
