Is This 1990 Dime Anything Special?

Forgive my ignorance please but I came across this dime when I was looking through some coin rolls and the rim difference struck me as odd. Is this any kind of error or just normal?

    This error is a misalgined die, but it is not significant enough to be worth anything.

    It looks slightly broadstruck out of collar... I may be mixing terms here since I'm not an error collector.

    The aforementioned misaligned die is the correct term. This is not a broadstruck dime.

    Thanks guys image

    Even if it doesn't add any value I suppose I'll leave it in my collection. Only error coin I have! image

    It does look like a very slightly misaligned die but check the reeding just in case it's a partial collar error.

    See, I mixed the terms to the point of not even having the correct term in the sentence! image

    There's nothing like getting mint errors at face value! image

    I see dimes like this often. I guess it's within the limits of quality control.

    I've seen all circulating coins except for nickels off center like this. Even though they are pretty common I still save every one. More on dimes than anything else. (Even though I save every one, I don't think the face value of them hits $1, and I've been saving them since 2008)
