spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 03/20/2017 01:09 am It wouldn't be an error with the cladding because the '64 is a 90% silver alloy, not clad. I assume you mean the color? In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 03/20/2017 01:12 am Because its stained? ED, environmental damage, oil, dirt, buried, chemical immersion, all cause effects. Seldom, but it does happen during the annealing process, copper atoms permeate outwards...this isn't it!. Looks entirely different, and seldom has heard, uh, been heard of. ACH, Spruett, beat me again and got it right! Missed 64! That's "tarnish", grandma'd git the silver polish out right quick... Edited by Crazyb0 03/20/2017 01:15 am Report this Post to the Staff
Biedercoins Pillar of the Community United States 1601 Posts	Posted 03/20/2017 07:22 am Tarnished. Regarding the line on the obverse, it's hard to tell from the photo. If the line is raised so that you can feel it,then that line is a big die crack on the obverse, through the portrait. If it's incuse - going into the metal - then it's a scratch.

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 03/21/2017 08:25 am If the edge shows the "sandwich" appearance that the 1965 and later coins do then you have a winner. If not then it is just a common silver dime. Worth more than a dime, but just the melt value of the silver. (If it IS a clad sandwich coin then your probably talking four figures before the decimal point.) Report this Post to the Staff
