It could be an extremely worn Seated Dime. I have seen some Seated Dimes that were worn almost that much. Back in those days coins saw a LOT of circulation. They were not tossed into cans where they sat and sat and sat until finally being taken to the CoinStar machine. (People back then would think you were insane if you paid almost 10% for the convenience of not sorting and rolling your coins.) A dime had some real buying power and most people back then did not have a lot of money. Rather than let their money sit unused in a can they circulated their coins. And the Mint did not have to mint billions and billions of coins every year to replace those that went straight from the cash register to a can. What a novel concept.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
