🔎 UNIDENTIFIED Barber dime

Guess this should be titled “what happened to it” instead of “what is it”.

Found this a few years back around an old stable. Hadnt thought about it in a while, until I saw the dryer coin posting earlier today. Has anyone ever found one in similar shape, or have a guess as to what caused this/why?

Thanks.

No idea what the mechanism was, but it sure looks intentional to me.

Yikes! Hard life! Since you said you found it around an old stable, I wonder if the manure and trampling would cause this damage. If it were mine I'd be tempted to rub the side of it with an Andre's Pencil to see if the discoloration is limited to the surface.

Fully agree. Should have specified….why did someone do this, and for what purpose?

Ok…I screwed up and mark this solved. How do you undo that?

So sad...time for it to be melted and go to a better place.

Looks like it was possibly clipped multiple times...clippings were used for soldering ...
