I found a 1990 P dime with smooth thick edges. When I opened the roll I initially thought it was a penny. I'm pretty sure it's an error but I have not really been able to find anything about what it's worth or what the specific error is called.

I highly suspect the 2nd image is a Dryer Coin.

A Dryer Coin is caused by a coin getting stuck in the inner workings of a clothes dryer (usually commercial) and the edge being altered in the process. Try a search for the term Dryer Coin, and you will see coins that are very similar to your coin.

@freesouvy, I agree with fuzzy on this. Of all the Dryer Coin threads on CCF, I think that this one is the most helpful:
