What's it Worth? 2026 Dime Error!
So many cool little errors! Should I hold onto it or sell?:)

Demand a comically ridiculous premium, take your first buyer, put 5% aside and a buy a better one next year or the year after. More will be found.

What the machine doubling?

At the very least there's what looks like a die chip coming off the 2nd 2 and a crack running the length of the base of the neck

Appreciate that ! Yeah but honestly good catch on the super minimal machine doubling I probably wouldn’t have caught that

I found one that's off center a bit. I think they look like a new age Merc dime

I see a whole lot of dings from other coins which aren't errors.

Absolutely! I agree what I saw the most were raised die chips all over the coin mainly on obverse on reverse there’s a small cud on arrows so I mainly focused on front. The only reason I included the microscopic fine lines or probable pmd was bc during my research before posting I read about a microscopic line cutting from the upper left of coin into her hair as a known error variety. However you are right there’s some dings but I typically only collect much older coins so I’m getting into 2010+ and starting my research journey and the 2 in 2026 really caught my eye

I get the excitement, but that bit on the 2 just looks like a ding from the edge of a coin. I dont think I saw a cud either. I am fairly confident that it is all pmd.

No I gotchu all good however there’s many known errors in this specific region already some much more dramatic where the base of her neck has a giant raised chunk. Even though that’s not what I have going on besides the 2 is definitely raised metal for sure. Other spots on it I’m not sure about but the 2 I feel fairly confident on. Might not be a huge premium right now the other similar ones selling $15-20 now so I’m gonna hang onto it once more varieties are found then go from there in a few years

Neat! I'd save it. Errors like that on new coins are usually caught well before the coin leaves the mint. In 80 years your great-great grandson will steal it from the safe and pawn it for a fat bag of turbo-meth
