<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kris Burton, post: 3634182, member: 105806&quot;]Hi,</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m a new member and first-time poster, but a long-time collector.&nbsp; I found a recent Jefferson nickel that looked unusual (see attached photos).&nbsp; The detail in the middle of both the obverse and reverse seems missing.&nbsp; Also, the rim is slightly thicker than a normal one (photo of edges of 2 nickels side by side; the nickel in question is on the left), and the diameter seems slightly less than a normal nickel (see photo of nickels stacked; the nickel in question is on the bottom).&nbsp; Is this some sort of planchet error?&nbsp; Perhaps some weird wear pattern?&nbsp; It weights 4.85 grams on a fairly accurate scale.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would appreciate it if someone could help me understand what I have.&nbsp; Thanks.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]974935[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]974936[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]974937[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]974938[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
