Hinkle Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Hello everybody, I'm thinking this is a 1983 but also has no 12 sided edge. And also weighs 2.5. I thought maybe a 1963 but they weigh 3.24. My question is, instead of a struck through grease die, is this a possible dryer coin. I'm not sure but the reverse looks a lot like that. Any help would be helpful on this one thanks.

J P M Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Maybe it weighs less do to loss of copper ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldhoopster Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 It looks like a dryer coin. Got stuck in the gap between the rotating drum and outer wall. Frequent tumbling and bumping around deformed the metal http://www.error-ref.com/dryer-coins/ Error-ref includes a link to this excellent explanation https://www.coincommunity.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=143863 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
