    Hello all,

    I don't know if I should say this but this is my first post.
    If anyone could relay any information concerning this, I would be much appreciative.
    Obv. has some color and the date is barely visible, the reverse is rotated and has a lot going on as well.
    Seems like possibly a unique item for a modern 2011 or has anyone seen similar?
    How would this be categorized?
    Again, I'd appreciate any comments.Thanks so much

    First, welcome to the neighborhood!

    All of the disfigurement on both sides of the coin is post-mint damage (PMD). Yes, there is a very slight rotation of the reverse, but it is well within Mint standards. It's a spender!

    Wow that's surprising to me. That would take a lot of effort to take the entire surface of the obv. off would it not? Thanks for the welcome. I look forward to jumping in with all of you.

    Put a nickel face down on some relatively smooth pavement. Put your foot on it and apply a little pressure. Now slide your foot around for a little bit and then look at the face of the nickel.
