As I was searching through a roll of dimes, my first time ever

I saw something pretty interesting. It was a 2017 dime, but it seemed copper. In this image below I show you the copper dime sitting next to a regular one. How much is it worth?

Hello and [w}!

It's hard to tell from your very small photo, but when copper colored dimes or quarters are found, it's usually due to environmental damage. Often they've been buried in the ground for a while and then dug up by metal detector users. All cupro-nickel or cupr0-nickel clad coins tarnish like this when they are buried.

I suggest posting a close up cropper image, and giving us the weight too.

Weight would be helpful for an accurate diagnosis.

@CoinMan.... a digital food scale that weighs in grams. You can get one for under $20.
