Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 05/16/2021 6:37 pm It appears to have been struck through a late stage die cap. It's impossible to say whether the first coins struck by this die cap were brockages or uniface indents. Edited by Adam_E 05/16/2021 6:37 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/17/2021 10:10 pm Note the rim on the coin. It is not normal, so I'm in the capped die event. But is looks like the cap is thinning, allowing part of the design to come through. I think this the first Dime I've seen this on. Report this Post to the Staff
