Was going through my collection of hand me down coins and found this one with a slight offset..... Missing reeds on rim as well. Worthless because of no date?    Edited by Switcher 04/19/2019 4:43 pm

@switcher, first welcome to CCF. Second, here is a link to the tutorial on uploading pictures to this site. With regard to your question, I think that the value of a misaligned die example goes up with the amount of offset. Not having a date may decrease the value some.

This is an off center dime. Struck without the collar. (thus the missing reeds)

Any suggestions on value without a date? Get it graded?

 A) Nice off-center strike dime B) You'll never figure out the date C) https://minterrornews.com/ has a generic price guide in each issue. It's pretty general but is at least a starting point. Starts at page 102 of the current issue (#48) with off-center coins on page 117... unfortunately, Roosevelt dimes are about the only coin not listed in that chart... still $40 seems about the lowest value for 10-15% off center in XF.

The P mintmark is a clue that it is a post 1980's dime. (The year the mintmark P was started on several denominations of U.S. Coins. (Except cents)
