<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dog_pound, post: 2751464, member: 77895&quot;]Nickels are a notoriously hard coin on dies, what I think you are seeing is die deterioration and a spreading of the lettering.&nbsp; Another factor may be that the lettering is slightly wider at the bottom of the letters as it nears the coin.&nbsp; As the coin is worn in circulation&nbsp; and the top of the lettering is worn off it gives the appearance of a wider lettering.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
