Tounge in cheek humor-mindless creativity actually, and very confusing for newbies. Send them to the corner with a dunce cap. :)
Okay, I just looked closer at the photo and they are nickels. I was going by your description which said dimes. Look for a smaller die clash on...
Minor die cracks on the shield cents as usual but be on the lookout for some nice die clashes on the reverse of the 2016P dimes. I have found...
At least this one is so obvious we won't have a 5 page thread on it...
I see a possible die clash. Bottom left stem and top right leaf cluster to torch stand out. Maybe someone here can do an overlay?

Agree with desertgem. I have seen this on cabinet stored coins that have felt liners. Eventually the felt deteriorates and begins to float inside...
Extreme die wear, but not an error. And from Philadelphia, which is common as they use their dies to the bitter end. You will not find this coin...
I would save it, after all, they are hard enough to find and would fill a space in your album as a variety until a nicer one comes around. But...
Above the L may possibly be struck through a small piece of thread, the rest looks like plating issues...to me at least.
Executive Currency and Denly's of Boston are both highly respected and on the net.
What I would have liked to see was..." Okay folks, you all seem to be on the same page about this coin. Thank you all for your advice but just to...
What Chris said, I'd be worried about PVC from that old plastic. May not show but still might be present on the coins.
I think the only reason I came close was that I had a large set of Bing Crosby VHS and he had his brother on the show many times as a guest.
