1978 dime no mint mark weights 2.5 grams 1 1

[Brad adams]

I found a 1978 dime no mint mark it weighs 2.49 grams on a 100th scale and don't know whether it's silver or another wrong composition

Is this a rare coin with any premium value

Coins without a MM are struck at the Philly Mint. 2.5g is the normal weight for a Clad Roos Dime.

No 2.27 grams is the normal weight for a clad dime.  But there is also a tolerance range of +/- .09 grams so tolerance could go up to 2.36 grams.  So Brad you have a dime struck on a slightly rolled thick planchet that is .13 grams overweight.  This is most likely not enough to get any error collector "worked up".  When you get to .3 or .4 grams out of tolerance (around 2.7 to 2.8 grams) then you may see some interest and premium value.

So what the value of it still just face value

Value is 10 cents,  See the last part of my previous post, not far enough out of spec to command a premium.

@Conder101 ooops! My bad. Don't know what I was thinking.

You just got them reversed, no big deal.  We all make mistakes.
