It's veeeery minor if it is, but I think I found a dime with a reverse die clash.

I believe there's a reverse clash of Roosevelt's forehead and nose running through the "PLU" of "PLURIBUS" from the connection of the lower laurel berry to its stem to the fork at the bottom of the laurel branch. (Sorry for the photo quality, I could only get it to show up if the light was hitting it the right way, and it was almost invisible under my usb microscope).

It looks like a clash of Roosevelt's forehead and nose.
Here's an overlay of a dime. You can see where the clash should be on a dime without misaligned dies.

Pretty minor. But appears to be a clash mark:

The condition of this coin is a little under what I would consider collectable, but it'll only cost you 10 cents to keep this one. You may want to save this one until you find a better clashed coin.

You have a great eye to spot something like that. For the cost of 10 cents, I'd keep it for pride and the story, can be motivation to keep digging through your change!
