    I found this dime a while ago and just thought it was an extreme struck through grease/debris example. Many months later I was checking out this link here: http://www.error-ref.com/?s=ridge+ring that references "design-devouring die wear" and actually pictures a 2015 dime similar to mine.

    So do you guys think this is a greaser or just an example of this design-devouring die wear? Thanks!

    Could be. But it's really not a Major Mint Error.

    Yeah I know, I just want to try and learn the correct explanation for it anyways. I only kept it as an example for what I thought was struck through grease. But if its not I don't want to label it as such. I throw greasers back into circulation all the time but kept this because I thought it was an extreme example.

    This I actually a new terminology for me. I never noticed it before.
    I will take it into consideration for any other coins that are posted in the future.
    Thanks for sharing that information.

    Awesome, thank you for all the time and effort you put into helping people on this forum. I don't always post a lot but have been lurking around this forum for a while now. I can definitely say that I have learned a ton of knowledge from you and your explanations on various coins.

    Design devouring die wear....seen often on modern Roosevelt dimes especially the 2015 P. Not considered an error.
