    Hey Folks, I'm leaning towards PMD, but wanted to ask your opinion if you think this coin might be a broad strike. Thanks for looking!

    This numbering explains the order of edge shots. I can try for better shots with more light if needed. 20201118_210401.jpg 20201118_210109.jpg 20201118_210128.jpg 20201118_210148.jpg 20201118_210209.jpg

    I'm going to say no to Broadstruck. Slight evidence of reeding with wear.

    IMHO

    I am leaning towards PMD as well. The total lack of metal flow lines (due to broadstruck) makes me feel suspicious.

    I agree with the masses. PMD. With the wear across the coin as well as the reeding still visible, I would just say that this dime has seen a lot of action in 32 years.

    I'd have to agree with the above responses.

    Thank you everyone. I didn't think that it really looked like a broad strike, but I really wanted it to be, so I needed some impartial judging.

    it looks like it suffered damage, including heat, and extended wear
