sickpuppy78501 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 12:23 pm I have this post-2000 Jefferson nickel without a face. I put it under a magnifier and it looks like someone used a tool to rub the face off, but there's so much of the obverse design left I'm just not sure. The weight of the coin, if it matters, is 4.88 grams. Is this a mint error, or an after-market alteration? Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 18348 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 12:36 pm I can imagine all kinds of things happening to it, but without a picture, I will not venture a guess.

Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 18348 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 1:17 pm I looks like the bottom portion was sanded or scrubbed somehow enough the reduce the design elements from the coin, even the rim and proto rim are erased.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 12004 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 1:24 pm I must ask, what does the reverse look like? Report this Post to the Staff

sickpuppy78501 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 03/29/2023 1:58 pm Thanks for the reply, Dearborn. That's kind of what I thought, too. I just don't understand why whoever did this didn't just scrub away the entire design, but there's no way to know that. Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Bedrock of the Community United States 10305 Posts	Posted 03/30/2023 04:10 am to the CCF No doubt deliberate damage. It did not leave the mint that way.
