Seems to be suspicious. Was it found in circulation? Because then it was an accident and a true mint error. As no one who made this intentionally...
It's a keeper either way as it is a low mintage NIFC coin, as is the 2004 in the other thread. My first thought was die crack. But IDK what it is.
The only way it can be copper, is if it were struck on a cent or dime planchet. The 75% copper that is in a nickel is alloyed with 25% nickel and...
VG details. I realize old copper gets a little leeway in the grading. But I don't like the ground off large circular areas on both sides. To me...
Proof coins don't qualify even if they have full steps.
It's worth about 3 cents.
New member posting on a 7 year old thread. Please show both sides of your coin. Nice one.

Nice coin. I think $30 is fair. $20 selling to a dealer.
First set of photos makes the coin look fake. Assuming this is a real coin, 1921 is the most common date, so unless it is in spectacular condition...
The supermarket by me doesn't have any quarters (pandemic shortage etc.) so I told them I have quarters. They just took $500 and they want another...
Being worn would not add to the weight. Being worn and circulated would slightly lessen the weight. (But just by very small fractions. Hundredths...
Peter your photos are blurry. It does seem heavy, but otherwise it's just a circulated 1952 nickel. The tolerance range is +/- .194. So it is...

There's an apocryphal story that goes with this. I won't bore you. Coin looks better in hand. AU. [ATTACH]
Frankie you don't have anything worth sending anywhere. The photos are blurry but the penny is worth about a nickel. The other "coin" is a medal...
Tested out the new rig this weekend. Made a little over my gas, and found a Mercury dime. [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
