About Dan Moore
Expertise
My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.

Experience
I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.

Coin Collecting - 2005 dime error

Expert: Dan Moore - 11/5/2009

Question
I found a rosevelt dime that appears to be struck on a quarter planchet both sides show perfectly like a dime but the thickness is that of a quarter with a smooth edge is this possible or not and what would a value be i've been collecting for about 5 years so i'm not an expert but i would grade about ms60-62 please help me solve this problem thanks

Answer
Tom,

I don't know what you have, but it cannot be struck on a quarter planchet -- it would not fit into the press with the dime dies and collar in it.

I suggest you find a local coin show (see coinworld.com) and have it examined first hand.

Dan
