silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/17/2022 9:56 pm What I see it is a very circulate 1968 Dime. hard to pronounce on this stage of the coin. Could be originally some grease or could be simply the circulation Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95432 Posts	Posted 07/17/2022 10:43 pm I think there was a bit of grease on the die - combined with circulation wear. Collecting since 1972.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/18/2022 11:23 am How do we determine that? Note the '8' is wider than the other digits? The extra width is caused by the die being filled on the deepest part of the die, thus only the width is note on your coin. The bumps and scratches it gets from vending machines. (Always nice to know what we see, so you can see what gives us the answers) That is what I like to do to help collectors know the differences.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/21/2022 1:03 pm Circulation flattening is seen on the tops of the highest devices. Thus it is coin wear on that area of the coins. Report this Post to the Staff
