    Have you measured it? If it measures smaller in diameter than a dime, the edge has been mechanical removed, whether by spooning or in a washing/dryer machine doesn't matter. It's PMD.

    It's just not possible with a spoon we just looked at it in the scope so 100% not a spoon cause I e been researching this and I also found ones that look exactly like from a spoon but not this coin...its done way to perfect to be beaten by a spoon,,it looks like a machine did it that's why I thought it might be an error because it just looks like how ever they make the grooves in the edge the machine missed that coin or it just didn't get the grooves put in thats 100% what it looks like but if yall say that cant be done then someone with a machine had alot of time on there hands and thats it.

    Ok thank you that really helped alot...we just put it under the scope and we were thinking no way in this world a spoon could do it cause of how precise and perfect the top and sides of the edge is....it just looks like a machine did it or I was thinking it just got missed when they do the groves....but I read how they make them so I guess either a machine spoon did it or someone spent a year making it that perfect cause we have been looking at spooned coins all day and I find the roll hunting and none of them even come close to what this coin looks like that's why we were thinking error....but if it cant be then it isnt... thanks for taking the time to help me bro

    Buddy. I have been doing this for many years. I even helped you with your nickel with the huge Die Bteak. The Cud. Remember? When I tell you that your dime with the missing edge is damaged I really mean it is damaged. All the people you have told they are wrong are correct. Spooned or not Your Dime is not a mint error!

    If you want then send it to a third party company such as NGC or PCGS to have it attributed as an error then show us to prove us wrong. But this is what they will send back to you. It's a no reed edge Dime just like yours. And they won't refund yout money!

    If you keep telling me and everyone else they are 100% wrong then why bother to help you? I will ignore you.

    There's many ways to do this afterwards. You don't have to use a spoon. Rolling it between two hardened steel blocks is much faster (or various small weighted jewelry hammers).

    If you look and research into coin jewelry making there are many ways to pressure down the edge smooth. Do not close your mind just because "you can't think of it" based upon your limited experience and knowledge.

    If you see the edge flattened, thinned and raised it is considered "spooned" irregardless of the exact method used.

    You're the expert, so no need to try to teach an expert like you. I just don't understand why you asked us about the coin if you already "new" what it was.

    well .. "for nothing" depending upon whether *your* hobby is coins ... or maybe someone else's hobby is basic coin ring making ??

    Many very newbie beginners in ring making from coins will test their methods by using .. well, coins.

    So any coins with reeding is prime for Learning how to smooth the edge. Of course, that would be dimes, quarters and half dollars.
    Why not test your technique on the cheaper option .. a dime .. because the dime is *always* worth 10 cents no matter what. And then they'll use their damaged dime for, well, money to buy something and thus it's back in circulation. (that's the neat thing about money, no matter how damaged up to a point it may look you can always still use it for its intended use .. money).

    it doesn't take long for just taping the coin against a hard surface
    here's the steps ==" https://snapguide.com/guides/make-a-ring-out-of-a-quarter/

    of course, techniqes improve with $$ put into their hobby. ==> https://coinringusablog.com/the-history-of-coin-ring-making-methods-throughout-the-years/

    of course, you can always use a spoon .. here more detailed steps of basic coin ring using a spoon ==> https://www.instructables.com/id/Make-a-silver-ring-for-25-cents/

    btw, how does a scope determine how or how not something made of metal has changed shape ?

    Slip it into an album, and see if the dime is a loose fit.

    Spooning will reduce the diameter of a coin.
