shaney777 Valued Member United States 151 Posts	Posted 02/12/2018 6:01 pm It looks like there is a raised area in the upper part of the "B." Also, the letters and numbers look shifted. Moreover, there is an odd double line thing happening between the head and rim. Edited by shaney777 02/12/2018 6:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 02/12/2018 6:11 pm The die flow lines make me think it's a very late die state. Is the reverse normal? Report this Post to the Staff
shaney777 Valued Member United States 151 Posts	Posted 02/12/2018 6:18 pm Here is the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
shaney777 Valued Member United States 151 Posts	Posted 02/12/2018 6:20 pm It looks like there is some doubling on the reverse as well. Report this Post to the Staff

shaney777 Valued Member United States 151 Posts	Posted 02/17/2018 3:10 pm Thank you for the warm welcomes! So I imagine there is no premium on this one? Report this Post to the Staff
RLS0812 Valued Member United States 131 Posts	Posted 02/17/2018 3:18 pm Die wear doubling ( AKA abrasion doubling ). Relatively common on 2015 P and to a lesser extent 2016 P dimes. I sell the ones I find for $1 to $5 each, depending on the strength of the doubling. Last year I sold a 2015 P with strong doubling on both sides for $27 Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/17/2018 3:34 pm As about as much premium that a senior can get for their wrinkles. LOL Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 02/17/2018 7:35 pm Some might say with wrinkles comes a wealth knowledge. I kind of like the effect on it, but that said I would not pay for it as I've run across some more extreme in the wild. Someone looking for pristine coins would most likely throw it back. While someone collecting oddities might give it a front row seat until one better or showing more Die Deterioration comes along. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
