<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1334330, member: 15199"]Welcome to the forum. In 1964, the 5 cent coin that was made in Denver and would have a D on it. The coins made in Philadelphia, had no letter ( no P) and included almost 4 million proofs and over 1 billion business strikes ( regular type). It sound as if you might have come upon a proof coin that has toned. I have seen them with a yellow or orange toning that could be such. Also the edges of the proof coin is very square ( right angle) and not beveled like a regular nickel. This might make the rim appear to be thicker. This is all guess work from your description, so photos would be necessary. I prefer to put my photos on Photobucket and then use the icon in the reply box that looks like a picture in a frame ( 3rd from right ) to load. Even if it is a proof , the value would not be much as they were so many made.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
