    That's a great coin! image
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    Hey Dog....look again, it is a struck cent on a struck dime making it an 11 cent piece. True, I do not see the dime date though. Still a very nice coin.
  • Very nice.

    Does anyone know, how common is this type of error?

    It seems like someone almost has to purposefully "produce" this type of error. But, I don't know. image

    As you were, there's ONE DIME spelled upside down & backward making it a double denomination!

    Are you implying double denomination coins are common errors?image

    That implies that I didn't see the denomination designation when I made my initial post.
    There not exceedingly rare but you don't find 1 in every mint sack like you do broadstrucks, clips & off centers etc. They are produced by coins getting stuck in parts of the machinery & equipment and later getting unstuck and mixed in with other denomination planchets on the way to the presses.
