<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 129222, member: 4552&quot;]I agree it appears to be a poor counterfeit. However, if your wondering why someone would counterfeit a dime, cent, nickel, etc. you should realize that at one time in our history a dime ment something. You could actually buy things with just one dime. For instance a pay telephone would take a dime and you could call someone and talk for hours for a dime and if it was a fake dime, the phone didn&#039;t know that so your call&nbsp; was free. During the depression a dime would buy a whole loaf of bread and you&#039;ld get change back. So counterfeiting coinage at one time was very profitable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
