Alabama11 what are you posting about ?
 

Yep, someone was in error when they did that but only if they didn't intend to.
 

Don't see any error, just a worn down dime next too one that isn't.
 

I don't think its an error coin, I think its just very worn.

Well, It doesnt have any of the teeth on the edges like a normal dime.
 

Wear would be even. Looks like a grease-filled die
Thank you. Im not a scholar about coin errors, but online it mentioned that smooth edges of the coin was a defect of the manufacture process and it has that.
 

That coin has been abrasively worn down. The parallel scratches you can see are a result of this. If the reeding on the edge is gone, that is another indication of damage, not an error. The only error that would be missing the reeding would be a broadstruck coin, one struck without a collar. When this happens though, the coin spreads out when struck and is much larger than normal.

well put I.Cutler
 

Thank you very much.
 

Mackaydon makes a lot of sense
I feel it is just well worn
 

I think that instead of pinching penny's someone pinched a dime...must have been Chuck Norris!
 

Aren’t they called Dryer coins or spun coins? Where they were worn down that way
