Error guys, can this be considered a clipped planchet on this Barber dime?

Pics aren't the best, but hopefully they can give you an idea. It's pretty minor, but looks like a small planchet clip. What do you guys think? If real, would the error even carry a premium?
Thanks for any info!
Don't worry about the date... my digital camera died and when I recharged it, the date was reset.

<< <i>Doesn't look like a clip. What does it weigh compared to other dimes with the same amount of wear? >>
According to my scale, it weighs 2.3 grams. I didn't have another worn Barber dime, but did a worn merc and also got 2.3 grams

As a rule of thumb, at least 90% of the straight clips I see offered on classic coinage are actually damaged. The coin below is a genuine straight clip and you can see the diagnostics very clearly.
