Jim0815 Pillar of the Community United States 5239 Posts	Posted 06/12/2018 4:11 pm Went to the bank to buy a box of cents and ended up with some hand rolled 50 cent tubes. The first tube opened and out popped this 1994 P Roosevelt copper dime. It weighs 225gms and rings of nothing but copper when dropped on glass. Cool to find this little beauty.

Educate me my friend because I have seen quite a few of these that appear to be copper but doesn't ring when dropped. What am I missing?!!? Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74679 Posts	Posted 06/12/2018 5:08 pm Jim, it's a normal Dime. There's no Copper exposed. It's just Environment toning and staining. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
