This dime has a hallo around Rooselvelt's head. I'm not certain there's anything here but thought I'd share for your thoughts as well.

Thanks,

Yep this dime was struck from a tired die.

It is also a slightly MisAligned Die strike or MAD. That's why it has the thin/thick rim.

Looks like a pair of dies that was affected with Feeder Finger Damage, that was polished off on the dies, leaving the weakness of the devices and the halo you are seeing:
