cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 01/10/2017 11:27 am The deeper parts of the die, such as Jefferson's profile, struck the coin, so it was a full strike. The edge has been worn or rubbed away somehow. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 01/10/2017 12:53 pm I've seen and own lots of dimes like such. Always wondered myself if it really was PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/10/2017 1:26 pm To me it appears to be sanded down. Note that the affected areas are the raised areas. The rim, the bust, the building. Where the metal tapers into the design, that is still there. Just the highest spots are missing. If it were a sanding issue, the coin should be lighter. If it is a coin struck on a blank, then the coin would be normal weight. So know this weight would be the next step. Edited by coop 01/10/2017 1:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 01/10/2017 3:37 pm Newly struck nickles are 5 Grams so it's a little light, but probably from the wear/sanding. Edited by Mark1959 01/10/2017 3:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff
