Woods020 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 It looks like it has had a rough life. Just post mint damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 That could not have happened during the striking of the coin so it has to be damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Greenstang may l ask question about my 80's dime? They weigh around 2.30- 2.60 gr. mostly and some of the 90's 2.10-2.27 gr. I know the actual weight is 2.27 and copper nickle is the metal content so my question is are those considered normal for over 2.27gr? Or might fall on silver other metal content ? This case is also similar to my Quarters. Thanks really appreciate!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mint tolerance for a clad dime is +- .09 so anything between 2.18 and 2.36 is acceptable. The silver proof dimes weigh 2.5g but they would have an S mint mark.

It might even go low XF in hand. Still not worth the cost of submission, though. I would put the value of this one in the $8 - $12 range, judging by "sold" listings on Ebay.
