I know somethings not right with this ear, but as to the correct terminology for it... I'm not sure? Is this a well known error, and if so... what is the proper identification of this specific coin.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96315 Posts	Posted 08/14/2021 9:19 pm From what I can see from the images provided, I just see a normal worn dime. the ear took a few hits causing some damage. Can you provide a close up of the ear? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

It has been around for about 25 years and has been in and out of a lot of peoples pockets over that time frame The ear on your dime has been flattened and damaged during its lifetime and there is nothing here that would have been made at the mint.
