Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 12:56 pm Please help with this. I am not sure what exactly is going on with this dime. Is it just off-center or is it something else. Thank you for your time and trouble. Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19134 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 1:04 pm Interesting. The first (top) photo seems to show a dime sitting on top of another coin. Is this the case? Not saying it is, just looks curious. Can we see an end-on pic of the rim? Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 2:45 pm Some kind of mint error. Maybe we need Mike on this one? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4395 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 2:55 pm The reverse rim looks to be flattened, probably PMD. Were encased dimes a thing? Report this Post to the Staff

jasper62 Pillar of the Community United States 2189 Posts	Posted 02/13/2022 09:54 am Here is one I posted a few years ago. I believe I was told it was a Tilted collar strike. Report this Post to the Staff
mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2734 Posts	Posted 02/13/2022 10:19 am The lead-off dime was vandalized outside the Mint. It appears that the obverse perimeter was flattened by a hollow punch while the reverse face rested on a hard, flat surface. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95324 Posts	Posted 02/13/2022 11:28 am I fully agree with Mr. Diamond. If the OP's coin was genuine then the reeds would be on the inside step, not on the outside perimeter. (have a good look at the placement of the reeds on the second coin that was posted by jasper62. I don't think that this is a partial collar or a tilted planchet. It is intentional damage made to look like an error. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.
