Just found this coin today and it has multiple bumps on both the obverse and reverse. Also a small amount of doubling on the b and u on reverse. Cool huh. I think so anyway. LOL what do you think?   |

coin looks normal, the bumps look like coin taken hits/damaged.Although unable to see from the pic.( need a close up shot) doubling maybe due to MD.

Some circulation damage to be sure, but it looks to me like you may have some die chips too on this dime. I agree with @chase that we will need to see a close-up pic to check for doubling.

Raised ones are die chips. Incuse marks (Pressed into the coin) are damage to the coin. Neither are a premium. Just know the differences if the real value.

Yes, very dramatic chips and possible RIDB on his head.

I'm sorry for asking and I don't want to sound like an ignorant person but what is RIDB?

Much better pics,thanks.
Other than the damage on the cheek, the rest are die chips.

Okay awesome, now I know. I would have figured that it being from 2018 it would be a bit more controlled and not put in to circulation but that's the philadelphia mint for you. So is this coin worth keeping?

You can keep it if you want. It's a good learning tool.
