  I am looking for opinions on this dime being a DDO and possibly a DDR. I am looking at the lettering in LIBERTY primarily, though on the reverse it looks like some doubling on UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Thank you for feedback!! Edited by SquirrleyGirl

A bit hard to tell from your pictures but it does seem to be some Machine Doubling (MD). Maybe even a bit of glare making the tops of the letters to look doubled also. |

Is this an impaired proof dime?

They are supposed to have an 'S', but some that year didn't:  Thus my question as whether is was a proof coin or not? |

From the appearance, this could very well be an impaired proof!   to the CCF!  |

This is from a United States Mint Coinage 35 year Collection 1963-1997 that I split. I also have a 1966 set of the same collection, however I cannot find them on the US Mint website. I'm still a novice, that loves to buy coins from the local antique store.  I am working on trying to get quality scanned photos, I cannot seem to get the quality of pics out of this iPhone 11 Pro Max. I will also snap some from my microscope. I just now have time to get back to this coin. Thank you everyone!!  |

Your photos are absolutely fine! I'm not sure how you think you can improve them, they show the coin extremely well! |

I tried to magnify and use arrows to better show what I am seeing when looking at this coin.   |

With the magnification on the letters in question do you see it being a DD coin? I tried scanning the coins, however the images were not very good.
