Note how it stops at the rim. Little rim ding there, I'm sure that came after.

Not necessarily, It could've been laying a little on top of the protorim.

So the stripped reeding would be crushed in the first coin it gets punched into and wouldn't continue to punch into a coin like this over and over, right?

Nice! Struck through detached reeding. This may help demonstrate what may have happened. This dime has been struck at least twice, once in collar and at least once outside of the collar. The first strike left the reeded edge and the additional strike or strikes stretched the reeding to the point that it split. The reeded edge didn't cause a strike through on this coin, but it could have, and as some of the reeding is missing, it could have caused a strike through on a different coin.

Here's a nice dime for those of you that think the rim can't be involved..

Another great error!
I wonder if the mint has a big pile of detached reeds somewhere that have been swept up after production. I'd be willing to buy a few pounds if they want to sell them.
Does anyone find it strange that I love to collect mistakes? Most coin collectors want perfection. I, on the other hand, want the rejects!
