    But if it were a damaged planchet, surely it would have been flattened out once it entered the striking chamber and was put in between 2 steel dies with many tons of force? I personally can't see it being anything other than post-mint damage...too many things are present that indicate damage and not an error, including apparent damage to the rim. That would almost automatically qualify it as PMD, as the rims are formed when the coin is struck, as subsequent damage to them would mean that damage occurred after the coin was struck.

    bridgelanc1, if you want to send it to an expert, you can contact people like john wexler at doubleddie.com, James Wiles at varietyvista, bob piazza at copper coins.com, or maybe an error expert will chime in on the thread.

    non cents when I said it may have been a damaged planchet I was thinking of maybe a laminated planchet. these older cent planchets were horribly bad for this problem . it looks like even some of the coins rim may have also peeled away. we have to remember we are only going by what we see in the photos.

    Can anyone tell me if the words "one dime" are double die reverse and what the value of this 1983 p ddr 10c piece is. Thanks

    No problem, it's just that more people will see it if you start a new thread and they know you need specific answers.
