I got a 1877 dime that...... dont know how or what it is?? The front and back are off center alot like die error but the metal it`s like very thin i guess.Can read date On side there are 3 i guess readmarks.Coin is smaller than aholder for dimes .Still have not got camera up sorry.Was woundering how to find out if coin is real???

Nope.it is one dime plain as day .Well not plain as day the D on bottom corrner you can not see because of what i call die error .The whole coin is that far off center on both sides .But you can read one dime on back and the date on the front .You can see the body from shoulder down the sheild and ERICA in america
