1964 D nickel repunched mint mark

I saw where a 1964 D nickel with a repunched mint mark is worth more than a nickel. Is it true and does this mint mark quality

Do you see how the D is chopped off on the upper-right? That's due to the strike. It's actually pretty much thinned-out all around, and that's again from the strike. That's one way you tell.

 

I'm not sure of the terminology you're using. What is the difference in strike that makes its worth or worthlessness

 

Okay I'll go study up on it and come back with a better worded question but I believe you're saying yes it is a repunched mint mark I can also post the front and back of the coin for your viewing pleasure ☺️☺️

 

Good question. A repunched mark is imparted from the die, itself. The mark was repunched on the die. Strike doubling, which is what you have, is just by virtue of the striking of the planchet into the coin. These strikes are very violent, and rapid. The coins get loose in the collar securing them for the impact from the dies. The strikes don't impress crisply for it. The planchet moves, and there's a smear. Or it hops, and something's chopped off. That's how strike doubling happens. We look for repunched marks and doubled dies because they're from the dies, themselves. It means they repeat on every coin struck from those dies. And that's it, in a nut.

 

Hey, I'm a horse. How fast do you think horses type?

 

Im only part horse. The backside is what I've been told

 

So should I give it a bath before I take it to the market to be sold

 

I don’t see how it would hurt. Make sure you scrub behind his ears.

 

A horse is a horse of course, unless your Mr. Ed... A little bit of humor, very little. Have a nice day everyone, enjoyed the post.

 

Mr. Ed was pretty fast on that typewriter. He was a good driver too. Lol

 

A distant relative. He was a movie star. I decided I wanted to be in the races.

 

It's not an RPM. No need to sell it at the "market".

 

What is it

 

Umm ... wild guess ... A D ?

 

After Death so it's from the first century

 

Without separation their is no RPM . I see a " fatty " D . Reflective possibly .

 

Aww hell I'll separate it for you give me a couple of minutes and a chisel

 

Check it out from this angle an S over a D

 

Figure out your Microscope and report back please.
