The rim on this dime's obverse is quite pronounced at around 10, 11 o'clock. How does that happen?





P.S. The color is off for these pictures, not for the actual coin.

Where does the extra metal pull from to make a lip like that? I'm not seeing an equivalent loss anywhere else.

Thx for including that info as I was going to ask whether it was maybe missing a clad layer based on that copper color!
