Dearborn Moderator United States 95067 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 09:50 am Well a couple of things going on here. first thing that stands out is the Grease Filled Die - very nice one too. This dime was also struck with a very worn out die, I can see DDD, Radial Flow lines on the fields, and Ghosting of the opposite side (on both sides.) and EDIT to add - I see reed contact marks on Roosevelts Cheek Collecting since 1972.

Rubenstein Valued Member Canada 127 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 10:03 am Thanks Dearborn, I have another one but it was way less severe than this. I also have 2022 p's with die chips and cracks on Roosevelts Head, not sure if they are worth posting. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 10:44 am Yes this dime was struck with a tired die. And glad you are learning--that is the goal of this site!

SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 3:27 pm I disagree with Dearborn's assessment. I see no evidence of a Grease Filled Die. Looks like just a very late stage die showing some serious flow lines. Report this Post to the Staff
