    Can you tell me what I have here on my 1943 S nickel. It looks like a shard lays over the S but was printed on top of by the O. Is this rare or worth any money? What kind of error is this?

    Welcome to the neighborhood!

    It looks like it is a lamination defect, but it is strange how it hides the upper loop of the "S".

    @Fred Weinberg ? @paddyman98 ?

    Could be a retained strike through.

    Coins are never printed. They are struck/minted

    Paper currency is printed with ink.
