Recently purchased a set of BU Roosevelt dimes, and I came across this one, a 1957 Philly in which FDR appears to have a wart or pimple on his nose. Anyone ever seen this before? Any chance it's a recognized error or variety?

Apologies on the quality of the photos... shot on iPhone through a loupe. I need to get a USB microscope.

At least your Roosevelt's "blemish" is sorta camaflauged, my 1943/2-P Jefferson is right out there AKA "Rudoplh the red nosed reindeer";

Thanks for all of the feedback. Although a minor error, it's a keeper for sure, and it's cool to have finally found one -- I have other error coins, but they were all bought as error coins. This one just showed up in the set I bought.
