<p>[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 1134864, member: 15929"]Your dime's appearance was caused by the same thing as the IKE's I've posted. Pulling the clad sheets through the blanking press rollers which scratched/gouged the surfaces prior to blanking. Flip it over and the lines will be running in what appears the opposite direction just like the IKEs and the 71-D Kennedy. The devices don't show the lines as clearly on the 1969 dime solely because of wear, but they are there.</p><p> </p><p>The 1964 Kennedy I'm more inclined to think it was sandwiched between something based solely upon the green tint. I'm just not that comfortable with roller scratches due to the width of the lines coupled with the green tint.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
