Well I swung by the bank to dump some halves and the machine was temp out of service, go figure. So I decided to pick up some halves and dimes. Got 160 in halves and 250 in customer wrap dimes. Got lucky with so few halves and picked out 3 40%. The dimes were a skunk until the last roll and I found this error dime. Does anyone have a guess how much the dime might be worth?

Don't hold what I say with a grain of salt, but I think it has to be off by at least 15-20% to be worth much. Again, not an expert on this nor am I claiming to be. I think it is off but I'm on my cell and my eyes aren't good.

Nice finds though.

Looks about 5-10% off to me, was checking feebay and looks like not much maybe 10 dollars max, probably closer to 3 dollars I'm guessing.

Still a good find, Okie. :)
 

I'm 100% positive that it is worth 10 cents. Not enough off-center to generate a marketable interest. You might get a couple of bucks ($3 is pushing it).

Thanks DD you just crushed my dreams of making it big...guess I have to go to work tomorrow after all.

This is an off-center coin! I like the dime, I don't know how much off center coins go for, never looked into them, if they're valuable, I got this Gem!
Happy Hunting!

That one is worth a whole lot more.
 

Hey if it sells for .11 after ebay fees and shipping you make a penny!
