New here wondering if this is an error, I have a bunch of these dimes but one has a bigger gap from the water to boat , coin in question is on the right side , also seems to be a different water pattern ..pictures don't really show that good thoughts?

Just a variation of placement of enamel. Not an error.

I agree, the colouring is applied after the coin is struck
so it is
not always possible to place the coin in the same spot every time.

Oh okay thanks everyone ! So more of just a slight imperfection rather than a mint error

Correct.
It is only a mint error if it happens during the actual striking of the coin.
The colour is applied at a different stage after the coins were struck.
