Hi Folks, I found the following "coin" in going through some change. It appears to be a blank Dime Planchet, but I was not sure. I weighed it and it was 2.26 grams and also the exact dimensions of a dime. Would anyone know if it is a blank dime, and if so, what would be the value? If it does have value, does it pay to have it graded, even in this condition (or is condition not a factor with these?)? Thanks and Happy Holidays Regards
Yes, it's a Type 2 (upset rim) Clad Dime Planchet. It's worth about $2-$3 retail, not enough to pay for certification.
No.. You would also send it to have it Attributed. That's a different service besides the grading. Extra $ for that. Stick it in a 2x2.. That's all
It's only worth $5.00 tops, more likely $2-$3 so why would you want to pay more than that to have it graded?
