The video told me this dime was a double die and I believed it

Didn't I just leave a comment on your last post explaining how rare it is to get a doubled die on both the obverse and reverse dies?

No idea what video you watched that convinced you this was a doubled die, but you should use an actual reference site like variety vista, wexler's die varieties, etc., not some random youtube clip about a specific coin. Youtube is a terrible resource for coin collecting and I would go so far as to say the vast majority of information on there about error and variety coins is completely wrong.

These are the sites to use.

Keep in mind that vending machines flatten the devices on the outer edges of a coin. To me, l'm seeing a normal circulated coin. The devices seem normal, except the altered ones from circulation damage.

You're asking me which video? I don't know it was some tall lanky white dude and he was showing the coin and the one I had appeared to match the one he was doing a PowerPoint presentation on

So you say it's a vending machine coin coupe? Maybe I should hang on to it those are becoming rare these days with cash apps and a cashless society it may be worth something in about 50 years

@chip chatters Coop is just suggesting one of the many possible ways in which coins can become damaged like this. I wouldn't count on every coin to ever pass through a vending machine becoming valuable. Better off investing that money for 50 years. Not to mention that if we continue to become a cashless society, the bottom might fall out of the coin market altogether, much like we've seen with stamps as letter writing has become a thing of the past. If young people aren't using an object and interacting with it, they're unlikely to develop an interest in collecting them.

The obverse of your dime is showing circulation flattening. The reverse photo is to blurry to reveal anything. Spend it and avoid YouTube is the best advice we can give you.
