Smooth Edged Dime

[DevilDog812]

today i was looking through my brother's coins that he left when he moved out, and found a few keepers, but mostly just $20 worth of change

first, i found 2 silver dimes, 1963 and 1964

then while looking through some more, came across a 1972 dime (not silver) but it has a smooth edge like a penny or nickel would

i dont think it is post-mint damage though, the rim is still intact pretty well and the edge is smooth and flat, not jagged or dented

is this common or different?

also, ill try and get a picture later

Ive found these clad dimes before sometimes someone was bored and put them on a spinning sander and spun then around, or they could be just wear. They are still worth 10 cents
