I received a1924 Mercury dime in change today. It was amazing enough to get it in change but with a possible die error is unreal. Question is is it a die error or post date damage? Thanks for your opinion.

@rke, that is a super find for face value. If you are talking about those intersecting scratches that look a bit like a letter X, then that is damage.

Agreed, just PMD. Looks intentional as well (graffiti).

Looks like it was intentionally scratched onto the coin.
Just makes it worth bullion value now which is still a
good find in the wild.
Rest in Peace
