[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 3086765, member: 36230"]Absolutely not and I've already stated as much. Tom, you're trying to prove what you want or think you see as opposed to using only what's there to tell the story. Thus far the [I]only[/I] thing that has any connection to a dime is the size and is something easily achieved. Perhaps take a step back and rethink your approach here. Every one of us at one time or another has thought we found something that turned out to be nothing, and anyone claiming otherwise is lying. It's perfectly normal and is part of the learning experience, but must be considered such to be of any future use. Are you familiar with the basic concept behind Occam's Razor? If so, simply ask yourself what's more likely: that somehow a dime was magically encased inside a cent before striking, or that a perfectly normal cent was damaged in one of the aforementioned countless ways and is confusing to someone newer to the hobby.[/QUOTE]
