<p>[QUOTE=&quot;fretboard, post: 948313, member: 19765&quot;]Yesterday after work my wife gave me a nickel she had found at work in the coffee fund money.&nbsp; Make a long story short the nickel is a 1990-D counterfeit!Here&#039;s just a small bit of info as you can see it in the pics.</p><p><br /></p><p>The nickel weighs the right amount 5 grams, but I took it to my coin club last night to get a few opinions and everyone agreed that it&#039;s a casted fake.&nbsp; Heck some of you will agree just by looking at the pics and some of you won&#039;t.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>There are three major indicators of this coin being a counterfeit.&nbsp; The coloring is off and the area surrounding the devices is not flat and shiney like a regular nickel would be.&nbsp; When you lay one nickel on top of the other (like in a roll), the fake one is not round like the real one.&nbsp; The last thing is that there is a line on the rim of the coin.&nbsp; It&#039;s a small line but I think that&#039;s the line that shows it is not a minted nickel.&nbsp; just giving y&#039;all the heads up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
