172033814614I'm slightly in awe, because you'd think someone with a reputation like so wouldn't be, so, erm, ignorant, when it comes to errors.. Lowball coin and/or purposely worn down with something. I've seen and own several dimes like so. This is obviously no wear (ha, see what I did there?) near a "broad die struck"

I'm not even sure it's a 1990-D. John1

The Dime has no reeded edge and really needs to be weighed to determine if it is PMD, or a weak die adjustment strike. A weak strike is not going to expand the diameter seen in a normal broadstruck coin (IMO). It has to be 1980's dated as the top of the 2nd & 3rd digit don't match.

Looks like a coin that has passed through a million parking meters

The design on both faces was ground off. You can see the copper core exposed toward the edge.

And this is why I mentioned that it should be weighed for full weight.

Reminds me of a dime I found in a roll a while back. I remembered carding it up and putting it somewhere, but I never really expected to actually find it, but I did, so here it is!   Whatever the cause, it affected the obverse considerably more than the reverse. It has no discernible date and the rim has a tapered or beveled appearance with faint traces of remaining reeding. So what do you all think? PMD?

I don't know what caused this to happen. I'll find my other lowball rosie's, they are strange.
