Chef Matt New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 04/06/2025 11:47 am Can anyone help tell me what's going on with this dime? I assumed PMD when I saw the indention on the obverse, but the perfect ring at the base of the reverse made me think some kind of minting error. I am just starting to learn about error coins and appreciate your understanding in helping a newbie. Report this Post to the Staff

Chef Matt New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 04/06/2025 9:12 pm Was really hoping someone could explain the raised ring on the reverse at the base of the axe. Or what looks like a Q popping out to the left of the date. Or what looks like a s sarrif to the right of the damage. Report this Post to the Staff

Chef Matt New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 04/07/2025 09:30 am Ok, thanks everyone. I was sure with all the "hidden" letters, weird objects, cloth like texture to the neck, etc. that it was some kind of strike through. Oh, well. Report this Post to the Staff
