Stephu78 New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 07/14/2017 2:29 pm The edge is the same size as another dime and has the 2 tone coloring and ridges like another dime. I know that by the dealer I went to he said that the reverse side had damage from an overused or worn die, but the obverse side had no known idea what kind of post mint damage would cause that or minted damage would either.
