Hi all! Just came upon this 1875 cc dime. It appears to be an F-111a (actually possibly a later state that hasn't been documented yet) The reverse has some odd marks on the bottom and the denticles are pretty much non-existent on both sides. Is this evidence of some kind of clashing or dentil tracks from being double struck, or something else?
Thanks for your help!

There's no way to tell what happened to the dentils. It appears cleaned/damaged to me. Still nice to have a CC dime though!

Yes I do have it in hand. The part I am talking about is the series of striations below the wreath. They are almost like metal flow lines.

Strange that the denticles are gone. could they have gotten 'filled in' by circulation flattening?
