What's going on with this Barber Dime? An error?

Guys take a look between the nose and lips of Liberty and tell me what the heck that is exactly... lol.

Dirt? Or some kind of mint error?

Looks like a booger! J/K

Probably a die clash, and defiantly a keeper! Sweet! :thumb:

 

A die clash were my initial thoughts too.

 

Yeah, that was my first thought too... got a little bit a green there and everything... lol.

I actually did a search for "snot nose" Barber, thought it might have been a common error like a Bugs Bunny Franklin... nothing came up though!

This will probably end up on eBay pretty soon. I'm liquidating my US coins.

 

if it is a class what element on the reverse is it?

Ruben

 

That's a good question Ruben...

Here's the reverse of that coin for comparison.

 

hahaha... it DOES look like there is green stuff coming out of his nose...

 

What you are seeing the objest just below the nose is just a clean spot on the coin it;s not raised or incused the coin is dirty in spots and that;s giving that impression. Look at the area near the back of the neck near the ribbon another place were it looks like something is there but a clean spot on the coinwere I also indicated in black arrow

Where i pointed with red arrows is a die crack. No die clash
