A friend, who is not a collector found this nickle and gave it me because it looked strange. I think there is a remote possibility it could be an error due to the fact that, although it may look worn the rim and other high points seem to be untouched??? I could be wrong but no harm in asking. The coin looks to be from 1985 also supporting the non wear theory, any help is appreciated. Thank you.
It's a "dryer coin". The coin tumbled around in the fins of an industrial dryer for a prolonged stretch.
