    This dime has a lot of heavy die scratches. The letters and numbers seem to be distorted due to that. IGWT the tops of the letters do not line up. Some are thicker and taller. The date and mint mark also seem to be distorted. 200725145542975.jpg 200725145648509.jpg 200725145727440.jpg 200725145444522.jpg 200725145325543.jpg 200725145258897.jpg

    Danomite What do you say uh-huh

    Looks like this coin was struck by well worn aggressively cleaned dies that had DDD. DDD is still heavy in the 0 of 1980 and the mint mark.

    That's a coin struck by damaged dies at the US Mint.

    Well, we can't call it an error because the mint did it on purpose.
