Sorry if This a repeat, Found this dime in change, is this a 10c type 2 DCM proof? Andisit a Keeper? What say you?
What is DCM proof? What do you mean by Type 2? It's a impaired proof Dime. Meaning it was released into circulation and now considered damaged. You can keep whatever you want. About you thread title.. It's a Capital S not s. S for San Francisco
As Paddyman98 said, it is a circulated, and therefore impaired, proof. Not much money value, but hey, it cost you only a dime. I think it is a cool find, and I'd keep it.
Well I didn't get to bad of relies from you all. Thanks I think I'm starting to get the and of it? I'm still new to this.
Hey Rick. While it’s definitely a treat to find something like that “in the wild,” it’s not worth much over face value. By 1982 the mint had pretty much perfected their proof coinage minting process and nearly every example was either CAM or DCAM, so the cameo contrast your example exhibits isn’t rare or even uncommon. If you want to keep it and note on a 2x2 when and where you received it in change for sentimental value, that’s about all it would be worth.
