<p>[QUOTE="BR549, post: 1067635, member: 7110"]There was a coin shortage in 1965, they even borrowed the press from the Carson City Mint Museum and all three mints went full tilt in order to catch up with demand. This is a product of abraded (just flat wore out) dies that normally would have been retired but were pressed into service beyond their limits. After all, to the mint, it's just money for circulation, if it resembles a nickel, then it's a nickel.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
