Now, does anyone have a guess at value? I realize these things are hard to put a price on. It's my understanding that with an error of this...
Without a pic to better judge from? I'd say they were used in a casino. What year? Later years are flatter (less relief) and they seem more...
Dang! 7 out of 8 -- all sixes. Good poker hand I guess. Wish I'd found it -- a keeper to me.
I lean towards real. But I don't have enough experience to make a qualified determination. I've stated some of the things I saw that make me...
D'oh! This is the US Coins Forum not the Error Forum. Mike probably doesn't even know about this thread. As to who he is, Mike Diamond is the...
I second that -- Do NOT clean. Cleaning will greatly diminish the sale value. And yes, reeding is the lines on the edge that a dime has and...
Don't worry about the emotional/ personal aspects. I'm really only interested in the diagnostics. I don't mean to be a jerk about it or anything...
I see the dimes rim on one side only, the other side has cent elements running off the flattened edge. I don't get that. How would it be...

Oh, on another note, I found this ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170180979128&indexURL=0#ebayphotohosting ) while Googling...
Reversed? What do youi mean reversed? I don't see anything reversed. The "God Trust" of In God We Trust is forward and raised not backwards and...
I got to disagree. I think its real. But I need diagnostics from someone like Mike. What I see is a dime (1998 P) that then was struck again...
I don't know but I've found lots of Kennedy halves like that and I just assumed it was from contact with a ballistic bag due to the pattern. I...
Never do that! How would you learn? I rarely learn from the things I already know, I seem to only learn from my mistakes. As all mean are...
Slartibartfast?
nice bar nickel. And nice pic. what kind of computer microscope?
I agree, post. I agree wire cutters is the most likely reason. To add, though, because many people look at this site without posting and...
Quote: "Is it authentic?" End quote. To me -- and I am certainly not an expert (yet) -- It appears to be a type 2 blank planchet (raised rim)...
Well, we would need a pic to make a determination. (The phrase "double stamped" has been used to describe many very different things.)
