I found this dime and it seems to have no details on the reverse side. Other than a few scratches, it doesn't seem to have been damaged. What is the reason for this and is it common?

To CCF! . It's definitely damage. PMD. It didn't happen when it was struck at the U.S. Mint, so it's damage.

It's all damage from being ground down.

Yes, post-strike damage. Likely caused by being scraped on a rough surface.

@Rarefinds43 - - As mentioned PMD. Reverse show scrapping or grinding effects.
