I picked up a roll of 2012 dimes sill in the plastic mint packaging today and found that on at least 15 of them, they had extra material on the word "Elizabeth", especially on the II's after the word elizabeth.

On one, I found what I believe to be a grease error...

A lot of them also had an issue above the #1 in the date & streaks on the denticles & a few with odd shaped denticles. (more pics to come eventually)

Is this a grease error?

Is it worth a premium?

I would say, yes this is Struck Through Grease - mixed with other dirt/debris from the press. There's not a huge collector base for this kind of error, unless the error covers much of the surface of the coin. Also it's not a terribly rare error-type. Though it is interesting, I don't think there would be much premium over face value.
