Ashhwurz New Member United States 29 Posts	Posted 10/26/2017 2:28 pm I'm not too sure if this is a double die or not but it looks like it to me. Please let me know what you think! Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74090 Posts	Posted 10/26/2017 2:35 pm No, this isn't a Doubled Die. This is just heavy Die Deterioration from being in a VLDS (Very Late Die State). Just from a very worn die. This is normal and worth only face value. Errers and Varietys.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/26/2017 6:46 pm That mushy look is very common in the 80's dimes. You should crop your pics before posting,it makes it easier to see the coins. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74090 Posts	Posted 10/26/2017 7:01 pm The U.S. Mint were notorious for overusing the dies to the point were they would get in a VLDS (Very Late Die State) and all the details and letters got big and mushy.
