My Dad still occasionally mentions seeing some in a cabinet at his childhood home. I think at one point he said someone gave one to each of the...
It looks like it's got a lump in the right place, but with the coin's surface issues, I'm not sure you could ever be positive. There are LOTS of...
I'm pretty sure it is a proof, given those very square rims.
Still way down in pareidolia-land. Wouldn't it be ironic if this were actually a greaser, and never had a fourth digit in the date? :troll:
Looks like it was badly corroded, then polished.

Exactly so. Most boxes had a 2000 cent, but one box in 2000 had a dollar coin, and one of every 4400 boxes had a certificate that you could...
That looks like it's got the tailfeathers for sure, but... I can't see how this could possibly get a straight grade, given what look like deep...
Oof!
Don't forget to include the tolerance of your scale. Weigh 20 or 30 other dimes and see how the weights distribute.
I wondered about that. Seems like a lot of the copper tapes have some sort of protective coating. I suppose a bit of sandpaper could fix that,...
Hey, pure nickel is still a good find! :) Time for a magnet check...
