I'm new here and I'm hoping that with all your experience you might could help me determine what is going on with this dime. I have a 1966 Roosevelt dime that has the strangest surface and I have no idea what it is. It seems to be bubbled up on one side and has only slight bubbling (?) on the front side by Roosevelt's chin. The lettering can also be seen in the parts that look bubbled up... Thoughts? Thank you guys so much (in advance) for taking time to take a peek at it! Report this Post to the Staff

The high heat separates the cladding from the inner copper core/ Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
