It appears it took a hit. The metal looks displaced. PMD, JMHO.
Is this what you are asking about. [ATTACH]
The striations are caused by worn dies. As a coin is struck the metal flows and will eventually make grooves in the die. Scroll to die...
Hopefully that helps. Your welcome.
Welcome to CT. Your coin was struck from worn dies. http://www.error-ref.com/die-deterioration-doubling/
Beautiful 1942-D FS 101!!!
Are they all the same? Maybe I’m not seeing what you are asking about?
It’s caused by a worn die. You can see the striations on the second coin. There was only one mint mark style used that year.
Very nice addition!
Unfortunately MD. Flat, shelflike, with reduction of the devices. JMHO
Die deterioration. Almost looks like this: http://www.error-ref.com/reciprocally_deformed__convexo-concavo_dies/
Here’s some good info on this: http://www.error-ref.com/other-forms-of-doubling/
You need to calibrate your scale or get a new one. Nickels weigh 5 grams +\- .194 grams.
You must be missing the Decimal point. o_O
A Nickel weighs 5 grams so it can’t be 30 grams light. The lower weight of this nickel is due to it being ground down. All damage, PMD.
As stated above on the reverse. The obverse is a result of a worn die strike. http://www.error-ref.com/design-devouring-die-wear/
Nice lamination error!
Interior Die Break. Not a cud. Cuds involve the rim of a coin. Nice find!
Appears to ddr-002. Doubling goes hand to foot.
A jolly rancher, a car cup holder and that cent got together at one time!;)
