Keep your eyes open, you'll see these pretty frequently.
just a tad off center.
I check every coin I get, best error find, broadstruck no collar dime, maybe $10-15....

I would hang on to it just not anywhere near the fertilizer being a 2012. I am digging new coins ate in half already.

Mr

keep it for now and watch what comes into your hands in the future...

I see dimes about that off center maybe every two weeks,
Here's a couple recent minor errors, note the '99 dimes deep strike, reverse doubling of rim,
and rim thickness,
the '74 cent on right shows a high 4 in date.
no premium value, just unusual....
one dime I do look for is the 1982 with no mintmark, easy to spot and worth a few bux.
they were released in a concentrated area, Ohio I believe, and most snapped up quickly by the roll.
since it's one i remember, I watch for them anyway.
hh, Herbie

OP, no offense whatsoever, but you're better off putting that thing in a machine and getting yourself a candy bar! Although, kudos to you for having a keen eye.
