Fun find. Some long ago road rash on the reverse, but always fun to find an old LWC.
I have not found a 2009D as I recall. I could be wrong but I’ve found only 3-4 2009 dimes in the wild.
Yes...I see what you mean.
I'm thinking it's a bit of MD. Die cracks look like a mix of 001 and 002. I'm thinking that these are classic failure points on the quarter...

Started to sort through the latest collection of change from the past few weeks. I think I had around 30 dimes and in that mix, I found this....

Yes!! Jackpot!! It would be unusual to find multiple, different DDOs in the same roll/bag, but I like your theory that someone knew to...
If you CRH, you are going to find these. I suspect I’ve found 3 or 4 cents and at least one dime over the years. The first cent I found was razor...
A liberated coin...you caught it in time!! Fun find!
I'm with Eddie on this one (I think it'll grade higher) - MS66 RB. Dot on the shield and light damage to the date are a little bit of a...
