It doesn't look unusual to me......I just see a run of the mill 1967 Roosevelt Dime.

I assume you are referring to the size of President Roosevelt's head on the obverse.

The head was actually reduced in size in 2000, to allow more room for "LIBERTY, " "IN GOD WE TRUST," and the date. So, compared to a modern day dime, the head of a 1967 is larger.

FDR's head has been shrinking since 1981 to improve die life. Having mottoes and legends close to the rim produced rapid die erosion.
