Shwabit New Member Canada 9 Posts	Posted 07/07/2018 6:11 pm This dime seems to to have weak areas( may be wear ) but it also seems to have no rim on most of the coin. Seems smooth and slightly upturned seeming to cause the lettering/numbers close to the rim to be weak, back side edge seems to be all fine with weakness on the pluribus unum. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 07/07/2018 8:03 pm Seems a bit out of round. Is the diameter normal (17.91mm)? Also is edge reeding in tact? I'm going to assume weight is normal (2.268grams +/- 0.091grams) for now. Thanks, Doug. Edited by Halo1st 07/07/2018 8:08 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Shwabit New Member Canada 9 Posts	Posted 07/08/2018 12:01 am Now that I look it seems a bit thicker than a normal dime too Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 07/08/2018 3:58 pm Still a bit stumped on this one, because of the way all issues are lumped into one. The weak rim opposite both sides has me leaning towards a Vertical Misaligned Die Error (Tilted Die Error). Maybe a bit of grease affected the reverse as well. Thanks, Doug. http://www.maddieclashes.com/vertic...d-die-error/ Report this Post to the Staff
