It's not an error, it is raised off the surface and is residue of some kind of adhesive that was used to glue two coins together for some unknown...
I agree with Raider. Just someone with too much time on his or her hands. A portion was removed and then replaced. It could not have happened...
Howdy, Lining them up doesn't help much. We need to see a real close up of the hand area to see what is going on. Thanks, Bill
When a coin is engraved, anything can happen. The coin has no numismatic value and can only be valued based upon it's being a "love token" Or a...
I see no evidence of the coin being a doubled die, if that is what you want to find out. Thanks, Bill
I am going with those that say that the coin is not a full step nickel. I see two patches that would keep it from making the grade. Thanks, Bill
The other issue that I mentioned in another forum and it seems to have been supported is that it may not be the correct type of S for the year....

I don't know how you can have the two coins side by side in a picture like that and not see that the damaged one is thinner. Some of us have seen...

I hope it turns out to be a good one too. If it is a fake, it is a scary one as it can fool some very knowledgeable people! Good Luck. As to...
030.3 has almost no visible doubling on the llo and cents although it is slight. The doubling is more evident on the lettering around the...
Hi, It is a coin that is what we call , environmentally damaged. That means that anything such as acid, or being buried, for example removed the...
Hi, Yep, I see them all the time. Art is right. It is the result of heavy use in casino slot machines. I am working on a box of halves and...
Nice clip:-) LOL!
The ear is just damaged. Thanks, Bill
Think about it, if NGC attributed one of them incorrectly, it is more likely that they would attribute two or more incorrectly if their source...
030 has the strongly doubled MONTICELLO. That's the one i showed. 030.3 has really thick feet on the letters of UNUM. and doubling on the E...
i edited a post to indicate die #3 instead of #2....In any case. I can't say for sure but all the pictures of it show the S in that circle.
