That is the most obvious result of a distressed die that I have seen.

Very good pics. also of the coin. Just noticed the sellers name. He's well known in the field.

I've met Fred Weinberg at Long Beach. I have also purchased a few coins from him. I believe he still advises PCGS on error coins. He is not a grader so he can still sell coins.

That's fascinating! How many dimes were minted after that one? Not many I guess.

This is one of 6 or 7 shattered obverse (anvil) dies known from 1997. This is the most severe.

very cool, but it actually reminds me of the original Alien movie.
I'm also curious to see the top bid...

amazing! Its hard to imagine the force that those are impacted and how many times they must endure that impact before this happens.

Now that one is neat, for some reason it reminds me of Hannibal Lecter wearing that safety mask so he couldn't bite anyone...
