A dime which has served it's purpose, and has the dings and nicks to show for it--in this case especially on the edges.

Common older dime worth about nine-cents in a Coinstar machine (if it accepts it).

How much damage would be needed to disqualify a coin as a collectable coin? One hit. One coin scratch. It drops the value down to a face value coin.

I agree it's definitely seen it's better days. Sorry it's taken so long for a reply.
I should have been more clear with my interest. I noticed some area's such as the "O" in One dime. Also a few letters in the text below the torch. Can anyone tell me is this what I would be looking for in a coin that is considered a double die?

I understand what y'all are saying exactly. But could at least one of you simply look at the photos I am referencing too. And give me your thoughts on was it is that I am seeing. And give me your opinion as to what may have caused the "O" to look as if it has an additional piece to the left of it. The same goes for the "N" in the text below the torch. I see it has some type of doubling. I would like to know for my information what it is or what could it may be in y'all's opinion.

Dova, the areas you are referring to look like Strike or Machine Doubling. other than the Massive damage the coin has acquired.. Edited by suipakpaikungfu

Basically a damaged coin to a collector is like a blown out tire. Sure there are areas that look good on the rim, but the damage prevents you from using for your vehicle.

I went back to give your dime another look with your second request, and the doubling on your coin is very very slight, and is caused from Machine Doubling. Unfortunately this is fairly common and combined with the wear and tear your coin has, it's value is only face value, I'm sorry. Please keep searching! |

It depends on the coin and the financial means of the collector. For example the 1849 double eagle has a bad scratch on the obv. Shuld we just go ahead and acrap it? If it was offered to you at bullion + $500 would you pass? Then there are the collector who just don't have a lot of money. There are many cases where you either buy a coin with problems or you will never have it. |
