ANACS AU58 Jefferson Struck On Fragment (Coin Webbing) Nickel Mint Error Amazing | eBay Gotta wonder how this one happened.
Easy.. When the blank planchets arrived in bins to be poured into the minting presses to be struck there was that piece of webbing mixed in. The piece was struck and it was found by one lucky person. Cool!
Hmmm... If it were struck on a fragment wouldn't it be smeared or something? Did somebody destroy this coin without messing up the details?
No.. The fragment is still the same thickness as a normal planchet. It would be stuck just the same. It's a known error. Not the first ever found.
Nice price tag on it also. This is something Fred would likely have, if he didn't already. Thanks for the info Ed.
Good question, click on the photo and follow through and it seems not to have any rim. Must have just slid through...
