harveypb Valued Member United States 341 Posts	Posted 01/01/2008 5:13 pm I picked up this error nickel and I need information about what kind of error it is and how it was produced. There is some die clashing on the reverse. http://bellsouthpwp2.net/b/a/bastackyp/nikerr.jpg TIA Harvey Report this Post to the Staff

Sleaklight Pillar of the Community United States 827 Posts	Posted 01/01/2008 9:52 pm $30ish How do you know it's from 1984? from your pictures I can't make out the date. Edited by Sleaklight 01/01/2008 9:58 pm Report this Post to the Staff
foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 01/02/2008 12:28 am I agree, struck through a capped die. I have blank planchets that I identify by date:-) You sometimes find things in UNC rolls so you can pin a date on it. I'm not saying that the person making this post took this from an UNC roll but I am offering this as a possibility. Thanks, Bill Edited by foundinrolls 01/02/2008 12:29 am Report this Post to the Staff
harveypb Valued Member United States 341 Posts	Posted 01/02/2008 06:34 am I can't say for sure what the date is. It was marked 1984 on the holder when I bought it. Thanks to all for your help. Harvey Report this Post to the Staff
