this dime is way darker almost like maybe a clad issue? And on the back in green circle in second photo to many leafs? And there looks like a I beside the leafs ?what you think?its kinda like this one I found online.
The red arrow and green circle are identifying two different areas on the reverse. The red arrow might be a die chip.
The red arrow is the one I found online for extra leaf error and was selling it for 1000.but in the green circle there are 3 leafs and a o at edge of leaf
I just "leafed" through the Cherrypicker's guide to rare varieties and there is no error listed for extra leaves on the reverse of the Roosie. This guide is from 2012 and only has the major varieties. The vast majority of the time these kinds of errors are kind of cool to find but actually add no value to the piece. Just because someone is asking $1,000 for a coin doesn't mean it is worth that or will actually sell for that.
I think your's in the green circle is a normal one with a "hit" to the left leaf which makes it look like 2 leaves (3 if you count the other one) but it would be considered post mint damage (PMD) and is not an error.
He is just 28 years older... JK It may be a slight change to the dies that the mint uses to strike the coins with. Nothing unusual there.
The dark spots on your coin are from environmental damage. The marks on the obverse are hits and digs from circulation. The mark on the forehead may be a die chip but with the other damage it's hard to tell. Even if the coin was undamaged, a chip like that wouldn't add value. As you're starting to see, most of the "different" coins people find in circulation are damaged. Continue to research and study the minting process. Look at the reference links CT members post. It takes time, but the more you know about the minting process, the easier it will be to differentiate real errors/varieties (hard to find) from damage(lots and lots out there). Hope this helps
