<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mountain Man, post: 8298060, member: 94733&quot;]I just opened another 10 lbs of World Coins and this was in with them, in a 2x2 marked as a &quot;thin planchet lightly struck.&quot; I knew that was wrong. My first thought was the edge was ground down, but closer examination didn&#039;t validate that. </p><p>I&#039;ve seen many &quot;reworked,&quot; &quot;magician&#039;s,&quot;or &quot;doctored&quot; coins before, but after running through every possible scenario, but I couldn&#039;t figure this one out.</p><p>Larger than a dime, a bit smaller than a regular nickel, with a smooth edge. I can see no marks of grinding or polishing. Not magnetic, and thinner than any coin I know of, and has a complete stamped obverse and reverse of a Jefferson nickel, so what is it?</p><p>[USER=86437]@Fred Weinberg[/USER], [USER=92083]@JCro57[/USER], [USER=44615]@paddyman98[/USER], others?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1467617[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1467611[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1467612[/ATTACH]</p><p>Normal nickel on left, thin one on right.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1467613[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1467614[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1467615[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1467616[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1467618[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]1467619[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I just found the answer, so let&#039;s see what others think.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
