Since it is a 1999 I doubt that it is an extra leaf. More than likely it is a die gouge or possible a plating issue. You do have some very good eyes. Keep up the good search.

Now I understand how you see these things. You are trained to spot things out of the norm. Very cool! It is fun too see these things though, always a good learning tool.

Yes, you can add an image avatar in your personal settings. It's not an extra leaf since that implies a doubled die which it is not. I am thinking die clash. Here's some useful overlay images to compare to http://coinauctionshelp.com/dime_overlays.html

Hello. I realize this is a few years old, but I was checking your Dime out, "Extra leaf top of nut"
I have got to say the "extra leaf" looks a lot like it's mimicking the acorn.
I'm looking at the position then the details.
Maybe I've been looking at coins too long today and it's playing on my mind, but look close and maybe the acorn will pop out at you. I didn't even have to look hard. I just zoomed and it was there.

I also found this site because I was searching for one like mine. It's nothing special. The higher leaf to the left on the torch looks longer due to, (I wanna say spill) an over splash??

Then the higher leaf to the right on the torch looks split and smeared upward a bit.

Well I was only passing thru, but now I'm connected thru Facebook :)
