Juggalo New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 05/24/2019 5:42 pm I found a dime that's thicker than a standard dime and the reeding was barely stamped. Any opinions on what it might be worth before I take it to a coin shop I'm hoping for a general idea of what it could be worth so I do get low balled. Okay one last time. It's thicker than a regular dime and the reeding wasn't worn off in a dryer. Instead of weighing 2.2 it weighs 2.4 grams. Unfortunately my pictures aren't very clear.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/24/2019 6:06 pm That is a Dryer Coin. The weight will be normal, the outside edge of the coin will be reduced, because of dropping over and over in a commercial clothes dryer.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/25/2019 6:04 pm It won't working in a vending machine. Take it to a bank and turn it in to be sent back to the mint to be canceled. Report this Post to the Staff
lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1658 Posts	Posted 05/25/2019 6:44 pm Could also have been damaged intentionally. It may have had the edge hammered. Intentionally or by accident it is still damaged. Report this Post to the Staff

We've literally seen thousands of these here. It's done by spooning or a dryer. If you insist that you're right, the next step is to fork out some dough and send it to PCGS or NGC and then when it comes back a legit error you come back and rub it in our faces. We'll wait.
