I have been sorting through 50 pounds plus of mostly modern coin for a freind who's dad past away recently. Lots of copper cents and extremely little of anything newer then 2001. I came across this Roosevelt dime, reverse up and thought it a fire damaged coin until I looked at the obverse. Could this be struck though a late stage capped die. Any help would be appreciated.
Trapped between a fixed and spinning drum for a time damaging one side (with heat) and then circulating for a time.
