Dearborn Moderator United States 95360 Posts	Posted 12/14/2022 3:50 pm Well, the reverse looks very normal to me, but the obverse (the front side, heads if you will) looks to be a coppery appearance. A fully cladded dime should weigh in at 2.27 grams. I suppose it is possible that the obverse cladding is missing, but the strike looks normal to me I would think that if the cladding was removed, or just came away, the devices would have a 'softer' appearance. Can you post up an image of the edge please? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Allcoinage Pillar of the Community Australia 1510 Posts	Posted 12/14/2022 7:22 pm Missed probably 1 or 2 nickel clad layers. Just an opinion Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95360 Posts	Posted 12/14/2022 9:45 pm Just curious now, which side in that image of the edge is the obverse facing? left or right? I'm seeing more of a taper or chamfer on the left side when compared to the right... Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 12/14/2022 11:44 pm That's a nice error coin still in quite nice condition. Both the obverse and reverse show weakness in the details due to the thinner planchet, and the weight bears this out as well showing the dime to be missing the clad layer on the obverse.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/15/2022 11:45 am Looks like a missing clad. Note how the strike was weakened with the missing thickness. Nice find. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95360 Posts	Posted 12/15/2022 1:17 pm So, there is no cladding on the edge, which means the cladding was not on the sheet just prior to getting punched into a blank. I say this because the cladding usually gets 'smeared' down the edge during blanking process. (am I correct so far?) and if so, would this mean that there could be more out there (if the mint didn't catch them all. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.
