Sorry about the photo's. I thought some may need to know this, ya know.
Best photo's will be posted as soon as I can, (kinda very busy).
The first are two 2021 P dimes found in pocket change, together, and were posted a while back in detail.
Again temp. photo's for now.
Below, look at the west stem on both coins. I'll call it a chip for now. (remember ?)
And now close up.
A few days ago, in pocket change, I found this.
A 2023 P dime.
1. Die crack north on the obverse.
2. A CHIP IN THE SAME (WEST STEM or OLIVE BRANCH) POSITION, and showing the same structured chip.
3. In the first U of the motto there is a build up, or a chip, as to contain the damage on it's inside, bottom.
4. On the oak side or the east branch, at the end of the first split, on the east side, is another chip.
Better photo's are needed on this subject, for you and me.
I'm on it....soon.
Any thoughts ?

Looks like a chip to me as well. Neat find!
Quick! Get it off to PCGS for slabbing as an error then start the promotion and wait for the offers to start pouring in!
Die chips are seeming to be coming common on the modern dimes.
Is this quality control or poor workmanship in the manufacture of the dies.
Quantity over quality is prevelant here.
Also die chips are not errors, they are part of the minting process. Some call it a “Die Event.”
I think die chips might come under "varieties", technically. However, people sometimes apply "error" rather generically.
I have two lap tops one for photos and one that transfers my photos to this site.
I'm so mad at myself for thinking this was the way to go,
No brands will be discussed so I'll just sing a happy tune as I transfer the transfer to the scrap yard.
Golden showers also comes to mind. (sry)
I just realized why my pics look like goo from the scrap yard and I blame myself as I assumed, with good intentions.
So here's what I got (with a grain of salt.)
On the 2023 P dime...She's a double die. like the 1960 D Lincoln cent event.
The G in God shows missing parts as does the W in We also.
The Photo's are enhanced to present it's true structure.
23 olive branch view, notice the U, and the L.
I know ... I'm gonna stop and regroup. I'll be back.
