I'm inclined to think it's real. Its mass is within 1% of what it should be, and I think the date looks okay. I think a pit formed on the second 1...
AU50? Complete guess. Nice dollar!
Yeah, the B-3 and B-4 die pairings have the reverse with the doubled (repunched?) 5.
I've only roll searched a few rolls of nickels, but in one roll I found a 1940-S in the AU range and a 1943-P! Not too shabby for a $2 roll.

Here's mine (image is PCGS's): [ATTACH]
I'm fine with scuffs/scratches/etc if they're consistent with the grade, but then you see them slabbing a coin with an "X" scratched across the...
3 cent nickel?
I bet you guys get headaches trying to attribute these! Such minute differences must be tough to spot. Do you use a microscope or something?
Wow! I think that's the shortest any of mine have lasted. Your turn @-jeffB
