2020 P Jefferson Nickel

Not much but I thought I'd share my pocket change die chip. It is on the west pillar of Monticello.

And from the obverse it looks like he is shedding a tear about it!

 

I have the same one

 

Where is it?

 

Right here

 

The chip on your coin is in a different location than the OPs coin, so it isn't exactly the same. They are from different dies. Sometimes, it's better to take your time and be sure of what you're posting (just a suggestion that might help).

Chips on the Nickel reverse aren't that uncommon and they are sometimes referred to has a "hornets nest".

@eric6794 Cool find even if it doesn't add any premium

 

I shoulda said same type of error --i know I have another somewhere.

 

Why are they called Hornets Nests?

 

I guess that's what it looks like--When it's on the roof they call it snow

 

Two of a kind nice. Thanks for sharing your coin Diaz.

 

The irregular shape resembles a hornets/wasps nest on a house

 

Oh, I see. Thank you! So, on this 2019 ATB Quarter, that's also a Hornets' Nest on the left of the bell tower roof and the cross? That's my very first die chip find (if it is one).

 

Look at the steps too. The place is falling apart

 

That’s knot a Piller. Pillers ain’t end caps

 

I was reluctant to call my die chip a wasp/hornets nest because that suggest extra value. Typically for it to be referred to as a wasp/hornets nest it has to be apart of a building usually where a hornets nest would be built in real life.

 

Thanks for the additional clarification. So mine doesn't technically qualify either since it's right on the roof of the bell tower.
