Finally got some pics up. Hope you can see what I "think" I see. Color is really silver, but had to color it a bit.

I have never posted anything like this before, so here goes. I will try to get our techno guy at work to help me get a pic tomorrow so you guys can see.
I was searching dimes, and found a 1977 that has around the obverse edge on the date side what looks like the word "united" upside down with a faded "states." It is highly visiable. At first glance, I thought it was just scratch marks, but it is as plain as day. It is if the coin was put on the die on the wrong side, someone discovered it, then turned it to the correct side and stamped the correct face. Could this be a keeper, or a common everyday error?
