Can anyone tell me what errors, if any, this coin may have? It is a 1984 Roosevelt dime with a P mint mark. I'm new to this and am still learning things. I'm thinking it is a plachet type of error but honestly I have no idea. I just get a feeling that there is something up with it and to hold on to it. I am post a few different photos of it in hopes it will help you to determine things a bit better. I did not edit any of the photos at all. In advance, thank you for taking the time to help me learn something new!

    The picture is a 1995 dime ,either missing clad front(overse)and some on reverse, or has been exposed to some fire,like green is either oxidation or spray paint,my guess,only a guess

    Welcome to the forum! :)

    First off it appears to be a 1985 P
    There were some striking problems in 1985 with dimes and many have weak strikes and strange rims.
    I don't see any errors.
    The discoloration is environmental damage.
    The obverse has a few scratches and rim dings.

    Thanks for the clarification. ;)

    There are other dates that had problems but I know 1985 was one of them.

    Environmental damage. Strictly spending money.

    @CajunBelle .... Welcome aboard. Your Roosevelt dime has Post Mint Damage (PMD) and tarnish. No numismatic premium. Cheers, RickO
