vhensler New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 10/22/2006 7:52 pm Hello, I found this coin a while back and was wondering what happened to this coin and if it is of any value. As you can see in the pictures on the front of the coin there are two "bumps" on the coin and on the back there is one "bump". Any suggestions as to what this is? Thanks, Vance Image: Dime Front.jpg 64.29 KB Image: Dime Back.jpg 59.3 KB Report this Post to the Staff

The coin is a laminate and many are known to bubble when heated. I would look for traces of fire damage, but wouldn't spend a lot of time on it. Report this Post to the Staff
