Found this coin. Is it misprint or did someone shave off?

    Definitely altered after it left the mint.

    Magician's coin. They'll fit or sometimes solder another one in there.

    It has been altered after it left the US Mint and is known as a post-mint alteration.

    Do you know the magic words to get the other half to reappear?

    I only opened this thread to see how many posts it would take before someone corrected the spelling of Nickel...lol....

    Not making fun of you @eddiespin. I was just curious and would have likely done it myself.

    How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

    Someone would hollow the middle of a nickel so they could put a penny in it and call it a magic coin One side penny one side nickel

    There was just a youtube posted in one of these threads that showed a machinist turning a Sacagawea dollar into a magicians coin. I don't remember which thread.

    It was cool to see it being done.

    You can't print coins. You can mint them though :)
