Two error 1966 Roosevelt dime?

Hello all

Last year I bought an American coin collection (wheats dimes etc)
When I was looking at the coins after I sorted them I noticed this Roosevelt Dime.
Its 1966 but it looks like it has two errors on it
1. You can clearly see a bite into it on the bottom left.It looks too clean to be done at home using tools on purpose (my dad joked that he can make plenty of error coins in our shed )
2. On the right side of Roosevelt there seems to be a thick edge and on the opposite edge its very thin the same on the obverse (off centre?)
Sorry if the pictures are poor they`re the best I can take

My reason for asking is to clarify if this is an error
And what would you value it at?

Thank you
-Owen

The second coin may be off-center but it's too minor to even consider. You'll find more dramatic ones if you keep looking. Usually, the devices (date, lettering, etc.) should be missing to be collectible.

The first one, you'll have to provide a pic of the reverse.

 

Ok thanks
The pictures are of the same coin and there is only one coin
Thanks

 

Okay. Can you get a better close-up with more light on the cut-out area?

 

I`m afraid I can`t get mcuh better pictures I`m using a digital camera.
Heres more hope this helps Thanks

 

It's interesting. I think it might be an incomplete clip. Wait for the others to give their opinion.

 

Thank you very much for your opinion
Would you say the thick edge isnt`t too important?

 

Nope. It's a misaligned die. (I called it off-center by mistake). They are very common.

 

An incomplete clip would effect both sides, would it not?
It looks more like an indent to me.

 

It looks more like a cut or clip it would not effect the other side as much as an indent, it would by push it out more on the other side

 

The dime has a small indent. An overlying planchet was struck into it.

 

Thanks
Are indents common errors?

 

Relative to other striking errors, they're fairly common. Small indents like this have little market value, maybe a buck or two.

 

i found a 1966 dime wth double in god we trust in liberty n 1966 how much its worth

 

try not to hijack threads, alright?

 

#1.. you need to create your own unique thread
#2.. you always need pictures. Both sides, big and clear pictures

Only Doubled Die varieties have a premium. Most coins display Machine or Strike Doubling or Die Deterioration Doubling. These have no added value.
