Dearborn Moderator United States 96936 Posts	Posted 01/12/2024 12:03 pm I'm going to say possible vise job. the cent and dime were pressed together, enlarging the dime planchet making it a 'Texas Dime' (just tossing it out there) you heat up the dime to soften the metal. So, is this dime you presented (the 2021-D) actually larger? and if so, is it also thinner? Can we see an edge on image side by side with a 'normal dime? Collecting since 1972.

HeidiB New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 01/12/2024 1:57 pm You are right, it is definitely thinner! I also noticed the liberty along the neck is oriented different. Is that also a sign of being in a vice? Or, what are the signs that you see? I'm going to keep it so I can remember what a fake looks like. I might also need to break out my coin collection so I can feel better, and maybe share some here. Thank you all for taking the time to help me! Report this Post to the Staff
