    I got this Buffalo Nickel for free at the FUN YN Seminar. At first I thought the crack was definitly PMD, but my brother thought it might be a planchet error? What do you think? Thanks for your help.:hail: :bow:

    I have an interesting North Carolina quarter that has a similar characteristic. It looks like part of the quarter was peeled off and shaped back before being struck. It's weird. I found it in change a while back, but haven't taken it to my dealer yet. This will remind me to do so on my next trip. I wish I could get a good picture of it. It's really crazy looking.

    I want to say error, but I really need closer inspection to be sure

    Do you need better pics of the edge, reverse or obverse?

    How about a picture, not close up, just one obverse, and one reverse.

    Well, judging by bqcoins', Treashunt's comments, and the poll results, I am going to assume that my nickel is a planchet error.

    Any ideas on value?

    No need. It's worth a couple bucks, that's about it.
