    1900libertynickel.jpg 1900Vnickelreverse.jpg Just wondering about these 2 coins. Would the reverse side of this 1900 V Nickel be considered a planchet error or just a completely worn coin.

    The Jefferson is a dryer coin, the tumbling does this.

    The other is just worn

    that v nickel reminds me of my old barber quarter.

    it might not be worth much to anyone else, but i like to think that mine was some kid's lucky quarter, and s/he carried it around in a pocket for years or even decades. for some time, it was very important to someone. that makes it a keeper in my opinion.

    Thanks all... I'm glad I asked because I had never heard of a dryer coin...just looked it up.
