<p>[QUOTE="KBBPLL, post: 26267769, member: 104064"]Sorry, it was a friendly jab at your confidence that the dime is an "error." Don't take it so seriously. The only similar thing that I can think of that could be produced at the mint is a retained strike-through. A regular strike-through would be incuse and not raised. The fact that the thin strip of metal is raised and attached to the rim, adjacent to severe damage to the rim, says that the metal was moved by a strong hit from something, another coin, who knows. As I said before, the fact that another strong hit left of the P also moved a big chunk of metal confirms that it's all just damage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
