[QUOTE="bettann, post: 2928246, member: 91430"]I was sorting through my pennies, when I came across this 1976 dime. It has no mint mark, and all of the markings on it are pretty normal. On the reverse where it says, "E-PLU RIB USU NUM, the letters USU look like OSA, only the "A" looks upside down. Also, there are traces of copper plating on the coin. At first I thought it was rust, but it's definitely copper. It has some surface scratches, so maybe the copper got scratched onto the coin? It's probably nothing, but thought I'd check here before I put it into my change jar.
