    Wondering if this line across the obverse happened at the mint....Kinda looks like it did.
    Also found a 1936 dime that has something stuck to it's lower obverse....How could I clean it off? Thanks ahead of time! SingleShot0000.jpg SingleShot0002.jpg SingleShot0006.jpg SingleShot0007.jpg

    Is that a plating issue with the Merc. ? Lamination Error ?

    Yes it happened at the Mint. It's a zinc Cent with s linear plating blister. A nice example but only worth face value.

    As for the Dime, not sure of the best way to clean it without damaging coin.

    I was gonna say that it looks like the path of the bullet...but that would be crass.
