    Could anyone tell me if this 1988 Dime was minted wrong, or did it get heavily damaged after minting. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

    It's post mint damage. I know because I've done things like this to coins before, lol.

    Looks like somebody was starting to carve it and then had second thoughts.......
