2016 Dime - Error or Not?

Post by Madan » Wed Mar 27, 2019 8:54 pm

Tim Hortons did not give me anything in roll up the rim. But got this coin which looks like having errors.
My observation and analysis of the coin are:

Weak strike on back - circumference beads and sail
Die chip on 6 of 2016
Die chip across 10 cents to the right on the boat edge
DD around first "G" of D.G.Regina

I am posting the pictures and will wait for the experts to take a look and advise if I am correct.

Looks like a partially grease filled die as opposed to a weak strike.
Not a Doubled Die on the "G".
Hard for me to tell about the die chips from picture.
If they are raised, then they are die chips.
If they are incuse, then it is damage.

Thank you for your feedback.
Is it possible that I bring the coin to the Yonge street location to be checked?

Why?
There is no extra value to it, it is only worth 10 cents.
