Dimeanique78 New Member United States 48 Posts	Posted 09/19/2022 6:08 pm Well, I'm not even sure what to think about this dime? Is it Mint or post damage(s)? If it is Mint what would this be classified as? I would say "hurt". I would think if it were post and had somehow been flattened (train, vise, etc.) it would not have retained its width and possibly would have deformed the ridges..right?¿ I included shots of it on its side,alone and along side of a normal dime for comparison. Any thoughts are welcome and appreciated. Thank you in advance!! Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 09/19/2022 6:52 pm "hurt" does seem like a good description. I'm not sure about the MAD/off center strike as one side of the rim is flattened--meaning the coin may no longer be round.
