biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 08/23/2010 1:26 pm The edge would not be reeded since a cent collar would be used and not a dime collar with reeding. Report this Post to the Staff

southerngent Valued Member United States 469 Posts	Posted 08/23/2010 2:07 pm The reeded question is an interesting one. In speaking to someone who should know, an ex-president of the ANA, if it were reeded or even showed the imprint of being reeded, it might be a dime tossed into the machine and in which case it would be known as an eleven cent piece. This one is not reeded or show signes of ever being reeded so it is more likely that a silver blank was inserted and not an already minted dime. I am hoping to gather more info Wednesday night at my local coin club. I will probably send it in along with a few other interesting items to be slabbed. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 08/23/2010 2:39 pm Yep, if it was an 11 cent piece it would be reeded but the first strike design(Merc dime) would be plainly obvious as well. Report this Post to the Staff
