Looks like machine doublingon the obverse to me. The rest of the letters/number will probably show some markings also.
The reverse, I'm not sure. It maybe a worn die. Not real sure on that one. been years since I've looked at them. The last time I saved dimes was in 2000. On the 1997-D Dimes I was looking for the full split bands and saving examples of them. But gave up as they were quite common. I guess the Mercury dime was the most popular Dime with the full split bands.

Thanks Coop, I don't collect them either but most of my friends toss all their American change my way and I look it over to see if I will hit it lucky. Wink

Appears to be machine doubling on the obverse, and a mix of machine doubling and die deterioration doubling on the reverse.
