My 1st time here. I am collector different things, mostly jewelry & some oddities. I have an interest in coins..and always look closely at each one before putting in change jar or prior to spending. I came across this and found it very interesting. Appears to be a dime struck on a penny. What do you think. .and what next?

No it is a dime struck on a dime planchet that was caught in a commercial dryer or spooned, not an error.

Never a slave to one plastic brand will I ever be.
Just damaged edge, probably from spooning. Regular dime that someone played with.
Ask yourself: why is your "cent" planchet silver?
You might also weigh the coin. Dimes and cents don't weigh the same.
It's not a dime struck on a penny.
It a dime that was either intentionally or unintentionally worn or impacted on the edge so that the reeding was obliterated.

That is just the normal copper core you would see on any clad dime.
Thank you for the insight/info!! Coins are new to me, I need all the good info!!
You don't understand. By tradition, you are supposed to get angry and lash out at those who haven't confirmed your hypothesis.
