Hi Guys,

Just need more information about this coin, l saw some doubling on the reverse, and from  the motto "E PLURIBUS UNUM" was missing "USU" so just wonder why or  is this a Mint error?

Thanks !

Grease on die? This is a big leap for me. I believe it was caused by a grease filled die.

I agree, based on the images in the OP. I'm assuming that's different coin in the third post.

There are not any known 1976-D Roosevelt DDO or DDR Dimes.  As has been said, this appears to be a grease filled die issue which is a common occurrence on pretty much all denominations.  Your coin is worth 10 cents and definitely not worth having graded.

Your other coin is not a doubled die either on the eye. If anything, it appears to be a large die chip.
