Washington_Rocks New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 3:54 pm I found this in a collection of nickels that I bought in a local vintage store. What do you think? The C in Monticello has a weird blob on it. Sorry, I'm new and don't know the jargon on what it's actually called. It is an old coin and not in very good shape, but I just thought I would run it by the experts on here! Thank you for your opinions! Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 98469 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 4:40 pm looks like a die chip alongside the C Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Washington_Rocks New Member United States 12 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 4:53 pm Thank you! I haven't seen an error like this in the common errors for this nickel. Is it worth it to have the nickel graded since it has an error like this? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/14/2022 6:27 pm Clues for die wear. (On the pre single squeeze dies) 1. the fields are showing flow lines. 2. The outside edge near the rims will be weaker/mushy like being distorted. 3. The devices move towards the rims as the die ages even more. Single squeeze dies with DDD: 1. The fields are affected, not the devices. 2. After this sets in the Ridge Ring is next noted. Edited by coop 02/14/2022 6:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
