 to the CCF Not an error, just small Die Chips. Please do not use screen shots, they are too pixilated, especially when you increase the size.

 Could be a die clash, can you post up an image of the reverse?

A little unusual to have die chips out in the middle of the field like that. Could it be die dents instead?

Oh ok, so you think the spots in front and below the nose is from a dent from the back. Sorry I acquired alot of old coins and bills and I am very interested in it now but unfortunately I know very little...

Not a die chip, but a die clash. There was probably more of the design transferred from the reverse to the obverse die, but it appears that the die was repolished, removing most of it.

I'm with Spence about die dents. (Maybe an odd, struck through "debris"?)
Die chips on dimes generally occur in the deeper parts or crevices of the dies, not in the fields like this one.
These anomalies are in the general area of the reverse die from a clash but the one at the bridge of the nose doesn't cross the transition from the nose to the field. The one at the field by the nose/upper lip area does the same and is separate as well.
It's hard to tell from these images but are there die chips/crack between the nostril and cheek and the corner of the mouth and the cheek?
