I have the same date and mint mark with very similar errors, though. How could this be?

It was probably burned in a house fire. Thus the dark color on the whole coin. Just a spender. The distortion was flattened a bit:

@clicker, first welcome to CCF. Second, rather than reanimate an old thread, it is always best practice to start a new thread so I have split your thread off of that old one. It can be found here

for reference.

Finally, I agree with @coop that your dime shows evidence of being in a fire. As there were a gazillion of these made, it makes sense that some would be of the same date/mint combination.
