Die chips are very common on dimes.

Daniel

Just lint on the coin, they wouldn't stay on the coin like this after being circulated.

Earle42

I agree

Earle42

As a die is used, the details can become worn. Thus the mint mark can look different. Yours is just typical.

Oh my

Not really worth grading - looks like a normal worn war nickel to me!

JTCC

no, not worth it, unless you wanted to lose money.

Please read the following, it is well worth your time (and money) to read.

Hey Magic, On this topic, you're probably thinking of the 1982-D small date on copper, which is the rare one worth big bucks. If you do a search on Daniel's YouTube channel, you'll find many videos on this topic where he explains the facts about this transition from copper to zinc with Lincoln cents...

Earle42

Your pictures are going to have to be taken so we can see the details of your coins.

There is no way to be positive about anything in your pictures except its a 1934 buffalo nickel with either D or S mint mark.

Daniel

Worth a dollar or so but your images are not that great to determine much about your coin. You can also use ebay sold auctions or buy a 2022 Redbook to help you with coin values. We well them here https://portsmouthcoinshop.com/product/ ... ice-guide/

I agree with all of them . Here's a tip for taking better Pics :

DSCoins

Having no Mint mark on any cent means it was struck in Philadelphia (except the 1922). The coin you are looking to find is the 1982 small date D (Denver)

Earle42

How much are the small date d mint 82s supposed to weigh? how much are the large date 82s supposed to weigh?

Severe physical damage… A parking lot coin

Earle42

One suggestion to your (simple and great!) diagram Sal. I find it force focuses the camera onto the coin if I put a two liter bottle cap (or something small to elevate) under the coin.

Daniel

And this is why I do all I can to encourage people to learn the minting process before searching or while searching their coins.

SensibleSal66

Nope, sorry . The costs associated with the grading fees outweigh the Value of the coin . ( approx. less than $1 in this condition)

SensibleSal66

These are Definitely called Plating Blisters . http://www.error-ref.com/blisteredplating/

Post Mint Damage . Environmental Damage .

I see no die doubling in the images posted here

Daniel

I don't see a doubled die either.

Earle42

Please check error-ref.com and search the term "doubling."

This will give you the answers you need when you find what you think may be legitimate doubling on a coin.

Earle42

It would be best to get pictures where the camera is looking down on top of the area in question. The lighting then would be more uniform and the details would be easier for us to see and evaluate.

JTCC

Machine doubling.

JTCC

Please post clear, cropped images of the obverse and the reverse.

Paul

Earle42

PIctures much better.

I agree with Paul: MD

JTCC

I also agree. MD

JTCC

Please post large, clear, cropped images of the coin, obverse and reverse next time. From the picture provided I see nothing out of ordinary.
