    I found this one day while searching through a roll of nickels, and before tossing it back, I wanted to find out if this is a broadstrike? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks. IMG_20130428_024059.jpg IMG_20130428_023918.jpg

    Definitely NOT Broadstruck. It's just a nickel with the rims worn down for whatever reason.

    A broadstruck nickel would have fully formed lettering as shown below. The lettering on the OP's nickel is worn away giving the appearance of having a wide rim due to being broadstruck (out of collar).
