If a coin doesn’t have a front? If it has two sides and both are tails?
I have a dime that is the same on both sides, it is tails on both sides. Is it a trick magic coin, or is it worth alot of money?

It is a trick.
Did you get it from a store as change? If you did, those people are dumb! for not seeing it when someone gave it to you.
Check if it says legal tender though, if it does save it and it could be worth something later.
There is a double headed penny worth around 3million.
trick coin!!
It’s a fabricated coin people use to win bets. They say "I’ll pick tails" and it comes up tails when it is tossed.
No magic trick coin would have the word ‘Issued by US Government’ or ‘US Mint’ or ‘Federal Treasury’ or ‘Reserve Bank’ on it. It’s downright illegal, like counterfeiting paper money. Thats one way to know if it came out of the Mint.
If it is, you got yourself a rare item.
look for the obvious mint marks( e. pluribus unum etc.) if in doubt take it to a coin collector for help but if it is real dont let them cheat you out of it. it could be worth thousnds of dollars
i may be worth some bucks, go to a coin dealer and just see
A novelty item. Like a magic coin or something. I have a two-headed penny in a case, but you can easily take it out. Someone probably paid with the dime to be funny and most likely no one noticed. Keep it and trick people with it. If you sell it you’ll only get like $2.45. It’s cool, but not really valuable.

It could be either a trick coin, or something worth a significant amount of money.
Trick coins are sometimes VERY well made. To be sure, take it to a coin dealer, and have them check it.
Good luck on having a rare, worth-a-lot-of-money coin. If it’s a trick coin… maybe you can learn to use it as a magic coin and make some money that way!
Hi:
Normally I would agree with the other answer’es . It a trick coin. However the U.S. Treasury Dept Does make defective or Misprint coins that do get past inspection but it happen very rarely and Rarely do they make a make Double sided coin that has both Heads or tails that get past There inspection of Quality Control. Usually 99.995 cent of the time they’ll catch it before it’s even get out the door and have it destroyed. However if it is a real genuine coin that was made that way and it got past there inspection than it’s worth a lot of money to the right coin collector. Take it to a coin dealer and see if a genuine coin or not. and you can go from there.
I hope this helps.
It’s almost certainly a phony, but there’s an easy way to tell. Most of these trick coins are made by grinding the edge and face off of one coin and hollowing out part of another, then fitting them together. Listen to the sound it makes when you drop it on a desk or counter compared to a real dime. The real coin will have a familiar ringing sound to it; the bogus coin will make a sort of clunking thud.
1.Please check its thickness carefully.
2.Is it the same as of the original one ?
3.If yes than check for security marks.
4.If those are genuine ,
5.then find the source from where have you got.
6.If it is through normal circulation then it might be a mint mistake and can fetch you good money .
7. In case the thickness is double the original then check for the joint, Some one might have joined two similar coins face down to make a coin which look identical on both side ,may be for some specific reason.
8. If no joints then also it is possible hat it is a mint mistake and two coins are sandwiched in mint, but this has extremely remote chances as machines senses the thickness of blanks before minting.
9.If you are satisfied that it is genuine ,and not a fabricated one then take decision of disposing it off.Once i got similar type of coin and it proved to be a fabricated one by joining two coins face down.
