Lately, my eyes have been playing tricks and games with me ... Hopefully, someone with a lot better vision can help... On my coin, it looks like something got slapped on his left cheek... not sure what part of the body that's meant to be if any or it's something totally different. surely, it's not what I am thinking. Regards   |

0k I respect your opinion ... but I totally disagree but its just me aye, well according to past statistics 60% of the time I am Right, 20% of the time I am totally wrong, and the remaining 20% is undecided... I always back my opinion and theory whenever and if I can't I never argue. That is when I become the best listener ... Ok back to our main topic... I disagree with my friend's answer and all the rest of my friends agreed with my friend ;) because if it was a PMD it would have been dinged in and not raised lines or shapes just as it demonstrated in the photo. even after expressing my opinion to my friend that does not mean, I Know what it is. I absolutely have no idea whatsoever. I only know it's not and it can't be a PMD ...my physics ain't adding up there |

The picture is not the best. With that, it is either raised, if so there is something on the surface, or if it's incused, then it's damage into the surface.

PMD scrapes typically produce raised lines along the sides of the indentations - that's what is going on here. Just PMD.

what about the millions before us who happened to stumble across something special, just wondering if there was anything anyone could study up on .... This is probably not as special as others but it's something more than special to me as it came from my late mother ... Ok looking at it again for the 1000 times ...mate I got the coin right in front of me and I am not a dummy even lots disagree with me there .... this is not a PMD... pls just have a lil faith in me ... if I had a lil doubt might be a PMD I wouldn't be sitting here trying to talk you out of it that's how confident I am. I will try take a better photo |

Those lines are normally created by a Gumball Machine or type of such maybe even parking meters. I have seen hundreds of those lines. |

Could well be, but PMD in any event. |

Ok boys and girls please listen up> I have had come to a conclusion, at least please try to listen and learn ... The lines you see IS NOT A PMD the lines you see on my coin are Roosevelt hair another thing you also need to know is that when there is a Post Mint Damaged coin try to look at the lines carefully and at least study them before making such a big call ... normally in about 99.9% of the cases when there are marked lines presenting some kinda damage those lines can't show any nicely curved patterns, Arcs and even a 90 Degrees connected lines ... If this isn't enough for my friends to open their minds then I quiet. I must be in the wrong place around the wrong people Best Regads To All RONI |

@dec, it seems you are indeed not well aligned with our opinions about this dime. That is fine—we are all just volunteering our opinions and you yours. as you are so certain, I recommend that you submit this coin to a TPG for validation that you indeed have an error here. I'm going to lock this thread, but should you take this step, then please follow up with us on a new thread so that we can all better understand coins better. Thx.
