Well, let's look at it and think about the minting process. Errors are things like an off center strike, wrong planchet, double die. A valuable error coin probably has no circulation wear, and is otherwise shiny and as minted. This dime is mangled. It looks like it was on the road or in a blender. I can't think of what could have happened by mistake at the mint that would lead to this. Short of depositing it at the bank, I can't see it being worth anything. Sorry, but that's my opinion!
