<p>[QUOTE="mrbensteele, post: 1647725, member: 41740"]Hello, so at work I found this nickel during one of my daily coins sweeps, and i noticed it right off. This nickel has obvious cracks, 2 major ones and 2 or more that arent defined enough for my camera to see well enough. I am sure they are cracks and not gouges or cuts. Under Mag they look like the grand canyon, layered. The larger of the 2 major ones goes from edge to edge, under the "n" in In god we trust, across the head and out by the "L" in liberty. The obverse is the only area that shows these cracks. These may be some form of strike thru but they look identical to cracks in stone, only shallow. These is also a minor Cud above jefferson and both sides exhibit wood grain which also goes along the same direction as the cracks . Opinions please, any rarity or premium? thanks</p><p>BTW these are the best pics I could get, hope they do.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]238826.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]238828.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]238829.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
