<p>[QUOTE="Donald Danner, post: 1905678, member: 70312"]I have seen many examples of clothes dryer coins, and this is not one. It is perfectly round as it would be if stamped out by a machine. I'm thinking that during the minting process this coin was stamped out the same size as a dime. Then, because of its size didn't get the appropriate raised rim. Also because of its size didn't get an accurate amount of pressure to the Lincoln die. Finally during the laminating process it received to much laminate cause its planchet was incorrect. I know it's not a dryer coin for sure. If anyone can show me one exactly or closely similar to this one I might change my mind, until then its a minting error.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
