    Silver found since sunday and a counterfeit 1964D Roosevelt ?

    Hello SE Michigan here.

    Been having a good week so far, a little silver everyday since sunday. Found anice sterling ring, though I think the pearls are fake. And today I scoredthe 54' and 60' rosie's, and what looks like it must be a counterfeit. Don't know if you can tell from the photo but it is a 64' Roosevelt andon the reverse it has a D mint mark. But it's flaking, and looks wrong.

    HMMMM? Why make a fake dime? Probably real?
    Nice digs!

    Thanks all for looking.

    Yes, Why make a fake dime? That's what I was wondering.
    I once found a 46' rosie in the same hole as a rusty metal object and that affected it's look.But this was in the hole by itself, unless there was something nulling that I missed.It is a strange one, the stuff flaking off almost seems like silver paint, kinda thick andgunky.

    Sorry Rookie, I don't have a scale, my parole officer won't allow it.

    Good luck,
    HH.

    Nice silver B! My 2 cents on the dime is that it was probably plated, and now the plating is flaking off. I have found chrome-plated and gold-plated dimes before, even annodized dimes, in roll-hunting.
    Good luck with your totals. Still another month left in this year! ffd

    I have dug silver coins out of fire pits that look similar to yours.
