do you have pictures, they are most likely philly business strikes. did you read anything else in the thread except for the post you quoted.
Not an expert but I believe its the Kopek 100 Kopeks=1 Rouble
My venture into the darkside is the junk bin at the local B&M, nothing fancy, but some are just outstanding.
Honestly, if you have to ask if you're qualified, your obviously doubting yourself, I'd call a dealer and let him/her take it over.
Here are some more diagnostics for the coin in question http://varietyvista.com/1970DRDV0023 dime.htm Edit: not seeing the clashes on your coin....
I'll vote plated as well, these are plated by other companies after leaving the mint, and many collectors refer to these as damaged coins.
Its a business strike (MS), and a proof coin (PR)
First of all welcome! You should make a new thread about the coin, be sure to include pictures.
I agree, and as a new collector, you should research the steps in which a coin is minted, and you'll realize its PMD, heres a video that somewhat...
Are you asking something? Or just telling us? Pictures of the coin would be nice.
What does the coin weigh?
Looks to be a possible lamination to me.
Ok...then would you mind explaining how this happened during the minting process?
The E took a hit from something, not an error.
This is a 4 year old thread you replied to, all of the posters are long gone.
I agree, just zinc rot, not an error.
Here are a few found on ebay,...
According to that the dime is worth 33.75, I think that realized prices on ebay is a much safer bet to get a price.
I agree, and next time, before you bid, just ask here, and you'll get opinions so you don't spend money on a coin that's not worth it.
There is no way to know what the supply or demand will be like in 20 years, it could be worth nothing, or a lot of money, no one knows.
