    PMD (Post Mintage Damage). Spend it.

    Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.

    1990 Philadelphia dime, damaged, worth 10¢. Not saying it's road kill or parking lot fodder but it could be dryer damaged. Others will chime in. Is there something you think that might add value?

    PS: yes this is the place to come for help.

    Then why are the letters moved or warped as well

    Hit it with a hammer and the letters will be more warped.

    Strictly post-mint damage. No numismatic value or interest.

    All glory is fleeting.

    If it were an actual error, the letters would NOT be moved or warped.

    Throw one in a dryer for a few cycles and see what happens, especially if there are other coins in with it.

    PS: not saying it was your dryer.
