    Unfortunately can’t tell the date on the dime but more than likely it is a 2015.
    Been awhile since an upload but have added some rare shield cents to the error pc lately.

    Only date of 2015 that I know of
    And then I know of two more shield cents struck on a struck dime both 2014. 1 sold in 2015 and the other 2014 sold 2 ish years ago now. Both this came from towns in Pennsylvania an hour from each other.
    This 2015 was found in New York

    I don't like it! The rotation etc. reminds me of a fantasy piece.
    Not exactly a rarity. Fun coin though.

    It's Broadstruck somehow within in the confines of the collar a larger die face would obliterate some of the rim.

    Def a rarity. I mean the rotation is common on other coins struck on other denominations… I’m sure you’ve seen double denominations with Pennie’s and dimes from the 80’s and 90’s if not it the rotation is VERY common

    A penny isn’t that much bigger than a dime. The perimeter of the penny u can see the L in liberty being stretched due to the strike amongst other devices close to the rim. So the “stretching” of some of the devices due to the strike. Doesn’t mean broad struck just metal flow when struck since the dime is smaller and the strike from penny dies is stretching the already struck dime. Also gotta think about the penny dies being incuse and the dime already being struck it flows into those raised already struck portions. It’s legit not a “fantasy piece” lol very much a rarity

    This is what I can do atm. The weakness you see kn the inverse pic at around 5 and 10 o’clock is what is seen in this pic that area from being struck. Bc since the original coin is smaller then what it is being struck on there was some movement in the striking chamber.
