It appears that this one came into contact with a caustic acid of some sort. Or so my guess. ANACS as the grader, MS60 Details- Damaged

 

Defective platchet,rim damage from set up mill pryor to strike.

 

Possibly a ragged clip. Looks to be MS.

Low MS due to scratches by ear etc... 62 ?
The planchet flaw will not bodybag the coin.

 

Looks like a defective planchet to me.

 

I say 62 also...cool error

 

Is it an error or damage. What type of damage or what may have caused it? What type of error?

 

Well I do think it a defective planchette and at the initial strike of the coin it detected from the coin. I say that because of the “N” in one. The edge of the coin where it is missing metal is lower than the fields of the coin and the leg of the “n” is pressed in to the lower area. Which I believe it was striked first and then broke off.

I may be completely wrong but from what I’ve been reading on the mint process this can happen..

 

Not sure if you're correct but it does make sense.

 

If the plachet was flawed that would be the weakest point to give way under strike pressure. Which there could or couldn't be retained. So most probably the bank bag of dimes had pieces in the bottom seam of the bag.then again the fragments may of ended up in another bag ,or the floor.
