Here is a coin I recently acquired raw. Unfortunately, it has a bit of environmental damage, but it is a cool error nonetheless in my opinion.

Hardly. The dime could have been struck on December 31, and the cent on January 1 (give or take a holiday).
Once you allow that double-denominations can happen at all, it would be surprising if some of them DIDN'T cross a year boundary
I'm not sure "cool error" is the correct term. Wouldn't "spectacular error" be more suitable?
A double denomination error would be great, as would a coin struck twice with two different dates. But add them both together?
That’s an incredible error coin!
Too bad it details graded…
(Though I wouldn’t imagine that’d hurt an error coin of that caliber too much)

One year apart does not necessarily mean that it was an intentional mint error.
19 years is a different story. And from 2 different Mints. Philadelphia over Denver:
My 11c piece.
I agree with @JBK
That is a "spectacular error".
This is seriously cool!
Seriously, such a cool overall look and presentation.
(I'd think that wee-bit of 'environmental damage' at 12:00 on the obverse could easily be removed.)
A great and important coin!
Thanks for sharing it.
Cool error but not "Dual Dated".

If struck on a ten cent planchet, I'd agree.
Struck on a ten-cent piece, it is likely to show remnants of the dime's date and thus would be dual dated.
Dual dates doesn't mean the dates have to be different dates....
I'm fortunate to have one of these very cool errors. Both dates (1991) are visible too!

Thank you guys. I was thrilled to have been able to pick it up. It just arrived back from NGC this afternoon.
I respectfully disagree.
Here is as much of the date that is visible. Faint, but the last digit looks to be a 4.
