I found a double dated 1921-2021 dime in a customer-wrapped roll that I got at the bank today. I can't seem to find any record online that this coin even exists. I see pictures of a single dated 2021 dime, but no double-dated.
I'm brand new to coin collecting, and this is my first post, so I'm not sure where else to look for info. Has anyone else seen this coin or know what to make of it?

Is it a coloured commemorative? Still waiting to see what gets released for this years 10 cent myself.

that is from the 2021 proof set, and certainly should be found in a customer roll..they were just recently issued..
i would have to believe it either entered the bank stream by mistake, or it was recently stolen..

i could be wrong, but I don't believe this was issued for circulation.

I see on the RCM website there is a SILVER proof coin matching this. Issued for the 100th anniversary of the Bluenose. I don't know if someone spent it from a proof set or there was another version. Very interesting especially if it is silver. Keep it and put it in a 2x2 for protection. Could you give us the weight to 1/100th of a gram? The silver version should be 2.45 grams, the circulation coin 1.75. |

Oriole, the proof sets on the RCM website that I saw had George on the back of the coin, but mine has Elizabeth. |

1960NYGiants, I saw that proof set on the Mint website, but it looked to me that the dimes issued in that set had George VI on the back, not Queen Elizabeth. Am I wrong? Mine has Queen Elizabeth, who I am sure will be on the back of these commemorative coins when they are issued in the special rolls in December. I was wondering if it was an error that this one was released into circulation already.

john100, you're right! I had missed that. I guess someone cut the coin out of their collector set. Thanks for the help.

 to CCF Rustoleum. Great 1st post. The coin doesn't have a proof finish, I agree with the boys on it being from 1 of the said commemorative sets. That being said, it doesn't look like this style is included in the Classic set. Can anyone confirm? "We are poor little lambs...who have lost our way...Baa...Baa...Baa"

I see that to get all 3 commemoratives (Insulin, klondike and bluenose) you have to get 3 different sets or 3 rolls, unless some will be released into circulation. I just can't keep up with all the RCM issues. |

it doesn't look like this style is included in the Classic set. Can anyone confirm Yes - Classic set has single date only. The classic (Unc) set is single dated to 2021. The dimes included in the Keepsake cards for the twoonie - Insulin and loonie - Klondike have the double date on them. So, unless someone has their hands on a pre-release bluenose set (highly unlikely), this is cut out from one of the keepsake cards. |
