Found this nickel while hunting. Can the team confirm or deny if this concentric lathe lines. If it is, does it hold much value? It looks like a parking lot coin.
Thank you!

They do look like lathe lines, which is neat, but any value will be negated by the "parking lot" features.

Nice concentric lathe lines. A keeper but I see no added value because of condition.

What for better examples of these coins from that die. I agree lathe lines. Damaged eats up any premium for this coin.



When they die blank wasn't polished, these lathe lines will show on the coins struck with those dies.
