i think i found one as well......

i dont know how to make it bigger then this.....
how can u tell if it is a "proof" or just a regular dime?

 

Sorry, you've just got yourself a run of the mill 1975 dime. Proof coins are produced differently. They're far more reflective, and have a kinda "cropped" edge. The one posted earlier on the thread is a proof coin. Look up "proof set" on google images.

 

thanks

Thank you so much i have been looking online all night and some today and thats the first time anyone has said that Proofs are shinier. i could not for the life of me figure it out.

 

Well, proofs are not exactly always shiny, as you can see by my 2002-S cent:

But, I can definitively tell you that your dime is not a proof.

 

what is a good website to use as a guide? I am really starting to have fun looking things up but the site i was using seems to say everything is worth something.

 

hello I have a 1975 dime no mint mark with the W of We going over the edge. I will try to post the pic of it. I am new here.

 

is this dime a common error

 

Yep.

Its a common dime alright.

 

what about this one guys? (sorry bad camera)

 

I'll say this...all of you 1975 dimes are fake or non errors.
