Spence Moderator United States 34408 Posts	Posted 07/24/2023 03:57 am @emm, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree that this dime has been damaged, but it is hard to know for sure in which way(s). The slight bulge on the portrait makes me think this coin has been exposed to high heat.

Emmy3388 New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 07/27/2023 07:32 am Thank you everyone for your input, I didn't think about the outside elements! Now I know, and again thank you all so much. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 07/27/2023 3:28 pm Emmy, the outside element should be the first thing you think about. Outside of the mint. Meaning PMD. Most people when first starting out find something unusual, and think it has to be a minting error. More than likely it's just damage. Learning how coins are minted will help you to know what an error is. Report this Post to the Staff
