Strange Mercury Dime.

[Garabaldi]

Anyone ever see anything like this? Why do you think its like this?

 

[VERMONTPACKRAT]

I would say that the coin has been through a fire.

VPR

 

[Garabaldi]

Didn't even think of that. Makes sence, because of the rust area.

 

[Bigcypresshunter]

Is it silver? It may be play money.

 

[Garabaldi]

I believe its silver. It came up on my detector as dime. The diameter is a bit bigger than a new dime.

 

[Roger Mn.]

It's what you said it was a mercury dime. You can see the L were Liberty is on a mercury dime and the chin and bottom of the neck. Like VPR says fire damage.

 

[Garabaldi]

Sounds good to me. Green check!
