    I see nothing but normal Circulation wear and tear..

    What is it that you see that looks different?

    The g looks like a c. Mint mark is a blob and the 9 looks to continue right through

    Probably took a hit.. There is no reason for the US Mint to replace the letter G with a C

    And the signature or initials are two blobs

    The only errors here are perceptual.

    See the ring running through all the letters? It was caused by the end crimper of a coin rolling machine. It is a damaged coin, not an error

    It is very worn. Probably circulation damage.

    Damage. Not an error. Assume this is an error, that means the letter C is engraved on the die and not a G. That means there are hundreds of thousands of these coins in circulation, but after almost 40 years, this is the first one known. Not likely.

    In Jefferson nickels, not many. All are readily attainable.
