 to the CCF Just a badly damaged dime. What you have is impossible to have happened during the striking of the coin. Correct typo Edited by JimmyD

Looks like perhaps a post-mint mangled 1969.

It is an example of a wrecked car, but on a coin. Not a mint error, like the wrecked car is not a factory error. One of the coins' owners, altered the coin. Just a face value coin, no premium for a damaged coin.

since this post is about dimes. I have some silver dimes and I dont know what to do with them. Should I include them as junk coins with other silver coins? If so, then what do I do with all the junk silver? I dont think I want to deal with a dealer. Maybe it's better to sell them. Opinions please. I have a few damaged silver coins and I put them all in the junk silver pile.  |

And there is no premium for how the coin was damaged. We often make suggestions, but the coin murderer is the only one who knows exactly how it was done.
