That's a cent struck on a dime. Turn it so Lincoln's head is down, you'll see that the dime is not mirrored.
Yes, it's worth 66 cents.
Where did you find a half gallon of milk for a dime?
Nope. Copper plate was broken during striking. The elements got to the zinc. That's zinc rot. Very common on zincolns.
Both gaps, A-M and M-E would be the same distance apart on the WAM. Yours is CAM.
No, it's not broke. It actually worked quite well for you. There are no CAM/WAM varieties for 1984. These are the only CAM/WAM varieties....
I'm sure you can find those photos with your own internet search. Try it, it's easy.

"The coins were worth $33,000.00" My guess is they were severely over valued by the owner. 33,000 coins would weigh just under 590 pounds. Stolen...
I don't suppose you'd like to share the name and address of that “premier” coin shop with us, Chip?
You are correct, sir, there is no mint mark. It's not supposed to have a mint mark because it was minted at Philadelphia.
Inflation?
So what do you see? I see nothing.
If you are referring to the circular scratch, it's counting/rolling machine damage. If you see more, please tell us what it is.
A super repeater, true binary note. Nice catch!
