1/Do not post photos of screens. They are useless. Many of the people you want to look at your coin will see that and ignore the entire thread.
2/ As somebody else posted, don't hijack threads, especially 17 year old threads. Most people you want to look at your coin will see that and ingore the entire thread.
3/ One coin per thread, one thread per coin.

You already asked about that coin in this thread: https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/comment/13900988#Comment_13900988
It’s poor form to ask again and to ask about your coin in the midst of a thread that someone else started.

OP posted a decent photo of the obverse but only partial images from a screen for the reverse. A full reverse picture would have been nice.
But it's damage, in any case.
This is the third posting of the same dime.
Also posted in the Q & A Forum piggybacked onto a 2021 cent posting.
the picture of the obverse you posted? post a picture like that of the reverse. don't use the microscope to do it
Here’s a rule of thumb that seems to apply on this forum:
If the word “ERROR” is in the title, it’s usually a “ROOKIE ERROR”

I would, as “usually a rookie error” sounds accurate to me as a rule of thumb.

‘Error’ in the title, usually means ‘rookie error’
