Keith67 Pillar of the Community United States 6619 Posts	Posted 09/22/2020 12:42 pm Looks like acid damage to me Report this Post to the Staff
SensibleSal66 Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 09/22/2020 12:51 pm Ok , What about the RIM ? See how one edge is reeded and the other smooth . No other issues, except that gaping Groove that goes all around . Faulty upset rim error ? LOL . Yes it's a real error . Book written by Alan Hebert , An official Price Guide to Mint Errors .

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 09/22/2020 2:12 pm I still think it's a partial collar, but I can't really tell for sure from these images. Do you have a weight on the coin? Here's the original thread. http://goccf.com/t/382715 ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Edited by Yokozuna 09/22/2020 2:16 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 09/22/2020 2:38 pm Agree with acid damage. Certain acids will eat away at the copper core quickly, while leaving the outer layers. Notice how the core is recessed from the outer layers. Report this Post to the Staff
SensibleSal66 Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 09/22/2020 6:58 pm I will weigh it. I guess acid it is . Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5792 Posts	Posted 09/23/2020 07:17 am If that indented rim goes all the way around the dime, that wouldn't be a collar error since the collar isn't configured like that or that small on one side. I would say it is damage from some kind of bezel or compressed into some lucky coin charm? Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.

SensibleSal66 Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 09/23/2020 07:30 am Yes Pete, The groove goes all around the coin. It does taper some though . The coin weighs exactly 2.05 g . NORMAL dimes (modern) weigh 2.268g. DIFFERENCE of .218 g . ? Any thoughts ? Edited by SensibleSal66 09/23/2020 07:33 am Report this Post to the Staff
SensibleSal66 Valued Member United States 79 Posts	Posted 09/23/2020 08:13 am Should I hang on to it. Can't sell it. Not an attributed coin . Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5792 Posts	Posted 09/23/2020 08:24 am Since it is under weight I would think most will consider the "groove" to be removed material, aka. PSD. It's a different coin and I'd hang onto for Educational purposes. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
