I have a 1964 Roosevelt dime that seems to be missing 2 fig leaves at the top of the fig branch on the left.

Any thoughts guys? Struck Through Grease possibly? Any value? Is this a legit error?

Could be a Struck Through Grease issue or an Over Polished Die issue.

Something may have been on the die that kept the olive leaves from striking up properly.

It should be missing fig leaves as there are no fig leaves on a US dime. There are olive leaves and oak leaves, but no figs.

But in all seriousness, looks completely normal to me. I see the leaf, it's just faint, so either a very minor Struck Through Grease or a little over polishing.

yep, if you were to have a fig leaf on the coin it would be an error.
the branches on the reverse are olive and oak representing peace and strength.
your coin was possibly struck with a Grease Filled Die.
