I'm a newbie. Coin in good condition to have letter missing. Please help. I'm happy about finding it today. Please make my day and tell me it's legit and not normal wearing. I appreciate your help.

Called "struck through grease. Substances clogged the die device and didn't allow a full strike on the E. Notice whow wide the device is, that shows Grease Fill

What letters are missing? Something scrapped away the top of the "E" in DIME .It also smashed the "NUM" of UNUM. All these letters can still be seen. IN & WE also look like contact damage.
your second photo if much better than the first. Much clearer. Also it is rotated from its normal viewing position. This makes it harder to spot problems
For a "newbie" this is a very good post.
Keep looking and posting what you find and have questions about. This forum has many good teachers.
And one excellent educator "coop"
Good luck.

It's just the missing e. You can see it's outline but if you tilt it, there's no e. Hard to take pic
