    It's above Washington's hat... it looks feathered.
    It looks like "extra metal". Been out of it for a bit and don't recall all the "error options"

    44 rolls of BWR Dimes
    41 rolls of CWR Dimes

    About half of the BWR were all 2022 :(.

    The CWR had -
    1 1918 3 pence
    1 1994 Proof
    1 Canadian.

    The 3 pence was fun! It's about 80% the size of a dime haha. 20230307_231452.jpg 20230307_231511.jpg 20230307_231521.jpg 20230307_231532.jpg

    The 3 pence is silver under $1 melt but worth $3 as a collectible coin.
    Went through a couple of rolls looking for W's (9 to check later.) Kept a nice low mintage El Yunque, and found this Wilma Mankiller with a large die chip in the hair.
    The coin is a normal color this is just my bad lighting.

    I doubt it is full steps. But still a beautiful coin. Full steps means 5 or 6 steps that go all the way across and are unbroken. The coin must be MS, and not a proof and, the current ones don't qualify as the dies were redone. (1994 ish?)
    Here is your coin:

    2 boxes of BWR halves.
    They were the black rolls, if I recall correctly that is Brinks.
    1 1967.
    Any silver is good silver :).

    So I go to my CU and bring in 2000 metal detecting nickels. The other machine at a diff branch was always shorting me. They would open up the thing and find the exact amount I said was in there. (Why don't they just spit out the uncounted coins into the reject slot?) But that's a pain to keep complaining about being shorted 20 cents. So at this other branch,"Oh we have a new machine no problem." Meanwhile, I don't even get half way through and the machine is done. "Oh it must be full it can't take any more. We'll have to call the guy." I am like are you kidding me? I just told you this whole GD story and you swore up and down everything would work fine. "I'm sorry." Yeah well that fixes everything. I don't even get a receipt and there's a bunch of uncounted coins stuck inside the beast. He calls me a couple hours later, OK the guy came, everything is fine. So they credit my account with the first batch, I bring the rest of them to finish the transaction because I don't want this dragging out over days. So one thing, it credited me with 2 dimes and a penny, and I know all I have are nickels. So it was prob inside the machine. And it also either counted a nickel extra, or there was a nickel in there as well that wasn't mine, and it kept rejecting a nickel. So I am 31 cents to the good. I take the nickel which looks perfectly normal, and the Wal Mart self serve won't accept it. I get home and weigh it. 5.0 spot on. I measure it against another nickel, same size. (1970-D). The rim is microscopically smaller but why won't the machines accept this coin?

    It's cursed. Better bury it.

    I will have to hand pay it to someone. I had this happen before with a normal quarter (MAYBE THE SAME DATE 1970-D) right size, right weight, not damaged,
    and the self serve machines refuse to accept it.

    Metal detecting or roll hunting?

    Didn't feel like starting a thread.
    You want to have it deleted be my guest.

    If that's directed at me, I wasn't being snarky. I was assuming it was a typo and you meant roll hunting. Or did you really have $100 worth of nickels found metal detecting?
