1975 high D nickel

Not sure if this would be considered an error or just an oddity, but I’m happy to add it to my collection for face value!

I think that is an interesting abnormality. It is in fair condision for a '75.

 

Yep, I'd certainly hang onto something like that! I think I read about them long ago, but I've forgotten any details.

 

Now that is the real deal. Condition looks to be XF and the 1975-D is worth a pretty penny even in the circulated grades. The Weinberg XF example sold for over $1K in 2022.

That is an incredible find whether in change or CRH. Bravo!!!

 

Thanks for the info! I found it in a roll today. This was a bucket list coin for me and living in the Denver area I was hoping I would find one eventually.

 

OH boy! 1k? I better look at my nickels more. I found a video on the subject....

 

That’s interesting that there are some out there with a cud. Now I’m curious how many could have been minted for the die to break down like that.

 

Super nice! Great find!

 

That’s worth hanging on to. Nice find!

 

That mint employee was either distracted (or high) when they added the mint mark on the die

 

I heard it's because they forgot their glasses at home.
