1985 D Dime error

Please crop your photos so we are looking at more coin and less of the background of what the coin is sitting on. Also the photo of the reverse is too blurry to make out any features that would need to be seen. As you have posted several topics so far, please remember, not every coin that looks different will be an error. I want to agree this is just some type of physical damage from what I can see from the obverse photo as I don't know of anything in the process of striking the coin that could flatten just the rim like that, but I'd like to see better cropped pics of both sides before offering any definite opinion.

If the rims were just worn down I would expect to see more wear at other areas.  It looks almost like there wasn't much of a rim to begin with when it was struck, maybe from an undersized blank, or possibly broadstruck.

What is the weight to 0.01g and diameter to 0.1mm?  Also, is the reeding at the edge present?
