Could this be a Capped Die?

Found this Nickel, nothing readable on it, so I assumed it was just worn to death, but something looked strange about it to me......On closer inspection, the edges look like a lamination error of some sort. The rims seem high and somebody suggested it could be a Capped die. I would appreciate any opinions.
Nothing around the edge is readable, and the part of MONTICELLO that can be seen are really spread.

That looks like a dryer coin.

A struck through capped die coin should show a completely good strike on one side.

 

Definitely a dryer coin effect. Not a capped die at all.
There are different degrees of damage according to length of time in dryer..

 

Here is a similar thread and nickel from a few days ago - https://www.cointalk.com/threads/hmmm-nickel.353666/#post-4008017

 

I think someone here posted a You Tube video about a guy who did dryer repairs and all of the odd stuff, including coins he found with varying degrees of the dryer coin effect.

 

Thank You All! I appreciate the input and education!
