2007 p dime errors on bottom torch band? 0

[AmeriRuski]

I've noticed what almost looks like a "cud" mark on a few dimes. I also have one from 2011 d that looks much more severe than these examples. Are these actually cud marks?

A cud only happens around the rim of a coin, what I see in your photos appear to be either a die chip or just damage from something that hit the coin in that spot.   Die chips are somewhat common and have no collector value, and damage is never collectable.

So what about the mark around the mouth on the fronside of the first image.

Just another die chip.

Appears to be a die chips. They are not cuds, nor are they errors. I would keep them if those features interest you though. Interesting conversation pieces.

I wonder why so many dime dies had this same problem.

 I have a few dimes from different years with the same thing. It is interesting.

I roll hunt coins all the time and I stopped searching dime rolls. There are just to many worthless cuds, chips and other oddity's that will make you crazy.  It is not worth the grief.

Overuse. Look at some of the dimes from the early 80's. It is difficult to find high MS specimens because they just ran those dies into the ground.
