Interesting bunch...The ag (about good) dime is a 2000-d

    now those are all over the place! I like the "worn" 200X dime. I hear they look like that when stuck in a washer or dryer for a while. Wonder if our host will grade it AG? May be worth some bucks actually.

    Congrats on the find, always interesting to see what others discard, knowingly or otherwise :smile:

    Nice finds, but there are no D silver dimes in 2000....Only S mints in modern coinage are silver. Unless you are not referring to silver when you say Ag.... If you mean 'about good', that is different.....The wear is considerable, not sure it would even get a grade at PCGS.
    Cheers, RickO

    Yes, About Good. Almost looks like 2006. Wonder if they'd deem the wear as intentional and not slab. Wonder if anyone really would pay anything for an AG grade on it?

    Me too. If anyone wants to send it to pcgs for grading let me know & I'll mail the coin to you at my expense.

    Not sure that would even slab at PCGS..... Too far gone.... Probably spent six or seven sessions in a dryer or washing machine...Cheers, RickO

    Definitely not worth the expense of slabbing... if you want to keep it...just self slab or put in a blank hole in an album. Cheers, RickO

    I check all coinstars I come across. Most people are ignorant and will leave silver is the discard bin...even though the machine tells you it will discard silver!!! No one likes to read.

    Alas...today many may not be able to read....or not take their eyes away from the electronic device glued to one of their hands long enough to see what to read. :smile: JMO

    that pic is interesting because it doesn't look like forced wear... Maybe throw this on the regular coin forum and see what others think

    That dime has wear consistent with being in a clothes dryer.
