IMHO this is definitely grease or some sort of strike through, there is a slight loss of detail in the date you can see this by comparing the second 0 to the last one. I just don't see a lamination here. |
Anything is possible when it comes to metal alloys it could very well be a plating issue.
I have serveral Jefferson nickels 2006 with that look maybe twenty or so. But not as extreme as the OP's ,and it;s a lamination issue my nickels. I would post one but my scanner doe's not pick up the details unfortunitly.
I respect your opinion Dutch that;s cool you think it;s a grease strike thru OK ,but not me.
