Need help on this roll of 2006 P Nickels

I got 5 rolls of nickels yesterday and this 2006 p nickels roll. All the nickels have bright spot on each of them. Anyone seen before?

Yes.
They all look like they have what is called a Strike Through.

However, if it is a strikethrough, how could it appear on so many of the coins? Wouldn't it be a one-time occurrence? Once it fell onto a planchet, you'd think that would be the end of it.

Something affected the Die? Stuck to the Die itself? Which will cause the issue.

 

Whatever he cause of it they all look very nice. The camera can't capture what i really want to show.

 

I can't tell from your photos. It just looks like the light is reflecting off of the same broad background part of each coin in the same way. Has the fine detail of that part of the coin been struck smooth somehow, or is it just a trick of lighting?
An interesting trick of lighting: if a Canadian $2 coin is held at a certain angle and then shifted, the image of the polar bear on the reverse in the centre medallion appears to act like a multi-plane animation having a lot more depth than is actually there.

 

No its not trick of lighting. Here is another closed up picture.

 

They each have a little bit different patterns

 

Photo with another 2006 that is normal to compare.

 

Interesting. I've not seen anything like that before, and I have no explanation for it.

 

Here is picture with another 2006 nickel.

 

Ive try to Google up but i cant find anything look like this roll.

 

Wow! That's actually a pretty ugly bunch of 2006P coins. I'd be tempted to think the die had something stuck to it in that spot. If you magnify the images, it certainly looks like a good part of the coin has been stamped more deeply than the rest in an oddly-shaped space. Difference in coin colouration between the two mints is pretty drastic, too. Somebody fall asleep on the quality control ine maybe?

 

There couple of them if the light hit the right angle look like Jefferson is peeping through a window

 

Found out is pretty common for 2006 p nickel. Strucked through a thin layer of grease. I'll just keep one for the look of it.

 

I would keep the whole roll together.
This could be a different strike through.
The greasers usually result in a missing letter, this looks different.

 

seen the same thing on a hand full of 2005 nickels, my dealer in manhattan said same thing, grease stuck to die.

 

I was thinking die polish.....but a whole roll?

 

Some are very beautiful when the light hit on angle. I dont know if this help but the edge of the coins is not very smooth. Some is pretty sharp.
