Hello,
First time posting anything on coins anywhere. I wanted to show a prize of my collection found in circulation. 2016 dime. Both sides have prominent Cuds easily visible to naked eye (no mint mark visible, obscured by Cud) and splotchy copper annealing. Long die crack at top back of Roosevelt's head. I have never seen anything like it in my (amateur) research. I took pictures with flash on and off. Please let me know your thoughts? I look forward to learning and posting more. Thanks!

This is heat damage. Most likely from a fire

@jvc, first welcome to CCF. Second, I agree with @keith that your dime has been damaged by high heat. That bubbling and distortion on both faces isn't Cuds, but rather damage. It is an interesting coin to look at, but just doesn't have any mint errors.

to the CCF

As stated, that is caused by being in high heat.
That indentation on the back of the head would
have been a bubble that has broken.
Also suggest learning the meaning of what a Cud is.
