Zinc, worn die, grease, etc. Nice but nothing real special. For one cent I'd throw in a flip and keep.
You're welcome
No just ugly.
PMD all the day.
It's real, just damaged. Spend it.
You can do better so just be patient!
X3, not a rim cud.
Damage in circulation or from a piece of jewelry like a mount. Good price.
Definitely split plate doubling. Common.
Where are your photos so we can see what you are asking about? Welcome to CT.
I agree with @Islander80-83 and @Inspector43. Keep the wife and the coin and send her back for more W's. Nice find so be sure to thank her!
If you mean the rim it's a die strike issue from a worn out tired Die. If you mean the circular patten that's damage from a coin rolling machine.
Nope, never.
It's just damaged after it left the Mint. Not an error. It's a spender.
Not that I can see.
I focused on the misprint and forgot about the date. My apologies. The date, 61, took a hit and was flattened. It's damaged after it left the Mint.
Possible over polishing bit could it be a strike though?
To me it's a normal worn out circulated nickel that saw so many of them minted it's insane. If it were me I'd spend it. The dog tags and other...
It's damaged. Nothing else to say. It's a spender. It's worth fifty cents.
It looks normal to me but I'm not seeing things straight today. For some reason my eyes are a bit out of focus and slightly blurry.
