Hello and thank you ahead of time. I want to preface that I'm very new to coin collecting, so I don't know all the appropriate lingo, and am going to try my best here.

I have a 1991 D Roosevelt dime with a flat edge. I saw another post on here where it was listed as Dryer Coins and it didn't feel like it was the right answer for this coin. If it's a Dryer Coin, so be it, I just didn't see it matching anything as the edge is super flat and sharp, it doesn't look or feel rounded or weathered.

If you can post pics of your coins we can discern.

PS: The google photos show a newbies out of collecting keeping the coins as in the photos.

Hey there! I went to add pictures to the post itself but the quality was lost pretty hard due to needing to get it under 300kb. Hence the google photos folder named coins, with 4 pictures of the dime. I visited the link from a separate browser in incognito mode and it came up appropriately. What are you seeing when you go?

Also, I'm sorry, I did not quite understand what you were trying to say in your PS?

PS mean you never keep a coin as in the photos with the fingers. Could damage the coin permanently.

For the photos, depending of the software you use the best it is to put in Web photos, will give you more opportunities. This it is not easy. You can have free PhotoScapeX for home use.

Understood about the gloves, I will obtain a pair.

As for the photos, I guess I am confused, as they are high-resolution. Are you experiencing issues viewing the images? I have checked the link on multiple devices (pc, laptop, phone, and tablet) and they're all appearing clearly to me.

I took some new pictures with a black felt background to hopefully make them a little easier to view, just in case. Same link.

Here we say Dryer or Spooned coins. Are mean after Minting the coin was deteriorate due to an rotative friction and hit.. I like'it the way to post the photos. Sorry I do not know you keep the coin in the hand. Keep by the sides.
