Freesouvy New Member United States 47 Posts	Posted 12/10/2016 10:28 pm I think I found a dime that was struck on a penny planchet. I found this dime in a roll of pennies so I'm judging based on that and the size. The first pic is a regular dime on top of it. The next two are of the actual dime. Insight would be appreciated.
