Hi, my first post, so please be patient if I do something wrong.
I found this 198x dime and it looks like it has a strike error.
Can you guys tell me what you think and if it is worth something.
Thanks.

It is just a heavily damaged coin worth 10 cents.

You can see metal movement in those areas and some deformation meaning that is just damage to your coin - PMD.

To CCF! I agree with above. Just a badly damaged Dime. Not an error. The pushed in rim and displaced metal is just damage. Worth 10 cents.

Well guys, thanks for taking the time to answer my question. I was hoping it was more than just damage. I'll be posting other questions as I find something I think may be different. Thanks again.
