Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6495 Posts	Posted 01/31/2026 12:20 pm I decided to hunt $50 in dimes this week. Unless I am mistaken, this is a 1970 dime with the reverse of 1968. Two deep grooves in the flame. https://www.error-ref.com/transitio...th-proof-re/ http://www.varietyvista.com/07%20Ro...0PRDV002.htm https://www.pcgs.com/coinfacts/coin...-1968/511014 Edited by Brandmeister 01/31/2026 12:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6495 Posts	Posted 01/31/2026 1:00 pm Awesome! =) Lacking any real knowledge about Roosevelt dimes, are the transitional reverse dimes common, or is this genuinely a lucky find comparable to a WAM/CAM cent? I currently have it soaking in some hot water to see if that crud dissolves. Acetone is next. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95456 Posts	Posted 01/31/2026 7:33 pm very nice find, but a whole lot of dimes to go through. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

From my experience, they're somewhat common. I've found quite a few from circulation. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Yeah, 500 dimes to find two keepers plus a handful of recent MS coins to tuck away in a roll. Dimes are so sparse with cherrypicking—I almost always find a few modern DDRs with 10 rolls of nickels. But it's nice to have the occasional change of pace. Report this Post to the Staff
