I found this Dime in circulation, and was wondering if anyone has some information on the Date etc.. I can not find and common errors that look like it.

Thanks,

You have what looks like a minor "strike through" error. Not valuable at all. From your photo, I detect yours is a 1967.

Yup. Old Finnan did his job, which I'm sure he was quite proud of.

Very true Bob. I check every day, but see little need to respond. Sad, this used to be a pretty good site.

It certainly didn't help, but the malaise that's fallen over
newsgroups is far more general than RCC. Many ISP's (including
mine) no longer offer Usenet access as standard.

In my own opinion, there were several reasons for this. Some
were technological; as available bandwidth increased and digital
imaging technology became mainstream, a text-only group like RCC
became less appealing. But in my opinion the "social contract"
required by an unmoderated and untraceable model eventually
broke down and the signal-to-noise level became too low.

I decided to keep paying for Usenet a couple of months ago, but
it was a very near thing even at about 4-5 cents a day. I still
take a peek here every few days, but if I post about coins it'll
be probably be elsewhere.

Seems all of us die-hards still come in every so often only to find Finnan and his ilk have destroyed what used to be a good group. I'm sure Mr. Hardy Boys is breaking his arm patting himself on the back.

RCC is available through Google without Usenet access

If I'm going to bother reading Usenet, the 10 euros a year
I pay for individual.net is more than worth the cost of not
having to deal with Google's interface or even of having to
shift to one of the free providers.

But the fact that this thread is 3 months old and hasn't
scrolled off the first "page" of my newsreader is pretty
good evidence that it's not worth the effort.
