I'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.

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

I have seen similar die adjustment strikes but the reverse on this looks weird more like PMD

the adjustment strikes I seen also where not so centered with the lows like this one on Ha

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.
