2012d Dime found in roll ERROR?

I work at Wal Mart and have access to alot of coins and bills and occasionally come across some nice stuff. Thursday I found a 2012d Dime out of an OBW roll that had a matt finish on the obverse and the reverse was normal shiny new silver clad. This coin came out of a full roll of 2012d dimes not just a roll of dimes from a sorter, have y'all heard of anything like this and how can I get it checked to see if it's an error.
Thanks Kent

Post some pics that show the difference.

Also, rolls are made by a third party. It isn't unusual to get odd coins in rolls.

 

I will try and get pics today if wife has time my photo abilities are limited.

 

Yes, we do need some quality photos.

I had to laugh though because my first impression reading your thread title made me think that the roll was an error, not one of the coins in it.

Here is a picture of the one I found on the right and a normal 2012d dime on the left. As you can tell my photography skills are lacking I just hope you can tell what I was referring to in my description. I just hope you can tell more by enlarging it or whatever with your computer. Please comment.

 

I can't comment on the finish because for some odd reason, both coins in the photo have the same (splotchy) coloring as the background.

I see coins with the same sort of foggy residue all the time in uncirculated boxes. It's usually a crescent, not the entire face of the coin. But if it is what I think it is, then it's not rare, it's not a mint error, and it should wipe off fairly easily.

 

The finish want wipe off it is the coin. I described as a matt finish for lack of a better word until today when I saw pictures of satin finish coins I am certain the finish is satin I just don't know why or how one side could be different from the other. I will again try to take better pictures but don't count on it I am not a photographer. I think I will take it to a coin dealer and let them see it in hand I know if I could get a good picture y'all would know what it was.

 

Think that's odd, I just found a 2012 dime that's lightweight and appears to be without the clad surface.

 

Start a new thread and post some images. Also post the weight to .01 grams if you can. You may or may not have something very good.

 

I found a 2012D dime with an overstamp (on the obverse side) of a lincoln penny.
