Please watch your tone, we don't act like that here.

Dryer Coins don't have material missing. They get stuck in the fins and only the edges get banged around. The copper reeds are the first to get flattened, then the clad gets flattened. The rim gets constantly flattened and widened, no material is lost even in long term Dryer Coins. Your measurements for the diameter are all are within tolerance so I don't get the point of arguing it. If the coin was on the high side of tolerance and now its on the low side, the diameter got smaller.

You came here to ask if it's an error. So you obviously weren't sure. But now you seem sure it is and your mind's made up, so send it in.

@bobby131313 I apologize and I reckon you have seen a coin or two. Upon further inspection with 50x magnification the flattened ridges become visible. I'm just the type of person that doesn't pass judgement until I have dotted my i's and crossed my t's.

As others have said, this dime was altered after it left the Mint. It was rolled and squeezed in the horizontal plane in a motor-driven or hand-cranked device. I see alterations like this all the time.
