JOE Valued Member United States 164 Posts	Posted 09/24/2008 03:14 am I first found this dime when I picked it up off the street, I thought it looked strange, But I just assumed it was dirty. Then I later found an almost identical dime of a different year, Now I'm curious... I'm making a thread for both coins since they are so similar, One is a 2001 D, The other is a 1966. My guess is that they are either missing a clad layer, Or have some kind of discoloration on them. (Or they are just really dirty ) Edited by JOE 09/24/2008 05:39 am Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 09/24/2008 09:09 am Dimes and quarters have a tendancy to turn brown or black when they are in certain types of dirt for a while. It can take very little time for this transition to take effect. Report this Post to the Staff

If you carry them with your other change they will make the appearance appear as antiqued. The devices will turn silver, the fields will remain slightly colored. Report this Post to the Staff
