I'm not much for error coins, but I came across this dime. Wear or error? The bust of Queen Liz is still raised with the details in her crown very pronounced as well as the back of her hair and necklace. Writing is still raised although weak in some areas. Perhaps a weak strike? My scanner is down, I will attempt more detailed photos. Thanks in advance, JF.

Welcome to the Forum

That coin has been ground down creating that effect.
It’s not an error but classed as damage.

Hello! If this come back certified AG-3/G-4, this is a great low ball coin (even if not my type).

What is the weight to 2 decimal points?
