1937 small date?????

Post by cwiebe21 » Wed Jan 29, 2020 7:10 am

I came across this in a pile of old dimes that I was going through I noticed that the date is significantly smaller and placed differently than on most if not all dimes I have. I can't find one that's similar to this. If anyone has any insight or knowledge on this particular coin, does that have a story? Is it rare? Does it have any value?I'm fairly new at this game so any advice would be very much appreciated.

They were all a small date in 1937. In 1938 they increased the size.
If you are going to compare coins, make sure you compare coins of
the same year as the dies sometimes change slightly from year to year.
