Smaller then normal dimes 16.57 and weighs 1.9. Rim has no reeds, and well grab a chair and see what the pro's think. Foreing planchet maybe? Picture is not bad. thats how the coin looks.

Looks like it has been spun around in a dryer a few hundred times.

I thought that to, but the clad layer does not fit the profile, and that would answer for the size, but not the weight. if I thought a dryer did this I would have left it at that. this dime is a flat grey in color. No evidence of reeds either. seems like a week strike both obverse and reverse. Wouldnt the coin get thicker from that alos?

the displaced metal from the edge is wrapping around the rim in places. I have this silver Roosevelt dime that's a Dryer Coin that looks something like yours, this one just spent more time bouncing around.

I suspect a Dryer Coin. As it turns out, coins often work their way into the 'innards' of the dryer's drum mechanism, and can stay there for quite a long time. Laundromat owners come across these coins when maintenance is done on the machines, or when they are replaced. A bank teller told me a laundromat story many years ago, when an owner brought in coin for deposit.

And then there's coin spooning.

Your dime is 2x2 worthy as a curious example.
