dtm4192 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 9:04 pm Hi I am new to the Coin World and I was going through my change jar. I found this 2015 P Dime. Around the edges on both sides the letters almost look like they are worn smooth, however the center of the coin and the rim are very crisp. Is this some type of error, normal wear, or something else? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

dtm4192 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 9:19 pm I will try to get better pictures. I only have my phone to work with though. On the reverse where it says "ONE" you can see where the light caught the smoothness and created a glare. Thanks for the quick response! Report this Post to the Staff

dtm4192 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 08/30/2016 9:35 pm Some better pictures. Notice the dark line through "LIBERTY" and "IN" and "WE" are barely visible. Also the dark line behind Roosevelt's head. On the reverse again notice the "ONE". The reverse basically has the same dark line as the obverse but it doesn't show up as well in pictures. Also I noticed the rim on the right side behind Roosevelt's head is thinner than the rest of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

You might try diffusing the image with some white bond paper or use less light. (just don't let the paper get hot and catch on fire) When I take full images of coins, I use two sheets of paper to reduce the glare: This reduces the glare, but lets the light through.
