Found this in loose change and wondering about it. It has very large edge almost like it was stamped wrong.
I also recently acquired a bunch of coins from my father that I will post more of them as I go through them.
Thanks.

Clearly someone maltreated this Dime. We say it is spooned coin.

No one spoons a dime, that ring wouldn't fit anyone but a newborn.

Dryer Coin. Stuck in a commercial dryer.

Fyi, coins are struck, not stamped. Also there is no way for this to be a mint error. With no reeds it would have to be struck out of collar (constrains the planchet and imparts the reeds) in which case the diameter would be larger, not smaller.

Yes the heavy wear on the high points of the obv and rev point to this being a Dryer Coin to me too. In the end though, it is not a mint error but rather mechanical damage.

I agree. It's a Dryer Coin. PMD.

Seems most likely to be a Dryer Coin, as others have pointed out.

I will say though, that just because someone spoons a coin, doesn't mean they want to make a ring. They could do it for boredom, a charm, a necklace. Some of the videos I have watched on coin rings show them easily hammering a ring much, much wider on a ring sizing rod.

I'll admit when it comes to coins, I like terms "strike or struck", but in the end and or beginning both are the product of a stamping machine. Thanks, Doug.
