Maybe someone was going to engrave a love token and got jilted midway through the process ... just a guess ...
Let's try not to get upset.

Makes four of us. Looks just like a love token, not finished.
But, and I hate to even go here......but most love tokens are on earlier type coins... not a Roosy.... and also most leave the date side??? So there ya go

Reminds me of this Morgan Dollar that I've had sitting in a cigar box for years.
Two heads, as shown in mirror image. Seam along the edge. Each "head" is 50% as think as a real coin.
Looks like your dime is half-a-project.
(Edited to add photo: Two heads AREN'T better than one).
