Oddity Dime
Found this "dime" sort of .. But the reverse is that of a Mercury Dime and
the front Roosevelt .. and that's not all. Rather than the detail being raised, it is sunken into the coin. Any idea what this is ?? Just someone having some fun with silver ?? Thanks. diane -- ----------------- www.Newsgroup-Binaries.com - *Completion*Retention*Speed* Access your favorite newsgroups from home or on the road ----------------- |

Sounds like someone sandwiched the coin between a mercury dime and a Roosevelt
dime and then hit it once with a hammer. I have heard of this being done with cents. Best Regards, Xaviery4 "Diane Whatever" wrote in message ... Found this "dime" sort of ..
