...and yes, you almost nailed it. Broadstruck and partial collar I believe.

I thought it would be some good pics for the younger guys to learn.

I would have snagged that, too! It obviously had contact with the collar because of the remnants of reeding on the reverse. It may be an extreme case of partial collar or maybe this: http://www.error-ref.com/broadstrike-forced/Or, it may just be termed broadstruck for being too minor. What's funny is that I also have a 1999-P broadstruck dime that shows just a little less collar contact:  What's more, I paid the exact same amount for mine.

I bought it from a fellow forum member along with another error, and I think there was no shipping charged, but don't quote me on it!  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

I think due to the reeding being visible, you could call this an extreme partial collar, IMO this is more interesting than a regular broadstrike, the collar deployed just barely enough to keep the reverse partly contained, but did nothing to stop the full expansion of the obverse, this is a great pickup for $15!

Thanks Adam, I thought it was way more interesting than just a regular broadstrike also. Very cool piece.

This appears to be a "forced broadstrike". The edge of the expanding coin made transient contact with a stiff but still mobile collar.

I have a hard time visualizing the actual stamping of the coin. I thought the collar was fixed with a die below it and feeder fingers bringing the blanks and dropping it into the collar and then the top die comes down. So it's actually a movable collar ?

The collar can move, although design details differ among press models. An immovable collar would be much more likely to suffer damage in the case of a hammer die misalignment.
