Joshu - a Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 05/27/2023 6:57 pm I'm half way through this box of 'mostly' 2023D nickels, and I've essentially found nothing. Save a 1944 wartime nickel out of the blue and a small number of nickels with streak marks next to Jefferson's face. Edited by Joshu - a 05/28/2023 1:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97936 Posts	Posted 05/27/2023 7:27 pm That is hard to say with such a small portion of the coin to view. It could just be radial flow lines. From what I 'can' see they appear to be at slightly different angles emanating from a common center. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Spence Moderator United States 34435 Posts	Posted 05/27/2023 7:43 pm Yes exactly. I think this is evidence of a tired die. Is there DDD on the peripheral legends?

Joshu - a Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 05/27/2023 9:56 pm I would say the nickels are in a normal mid die state. Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8802 Posts	Posted 05/27/2023 10:50 pm There were a couple of posts on here that I remembered but cannot find. They referred to a "struck through hot grease" scenario, that is what this reminded me of. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

I'll keep looking. I want to say it was on a nickel or clad coin and it was on more than one occasion. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8802 Posts	Posted 05/28/2023 10:45 am John1, "struck through oil", was the term I was trying to think of, which you used a few times. I'm not sure where I got the hot part from. This was the closest I could find searching threads but looks different.

Joshu - a Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 05/28/2023 1:20 pm I think makecents is correct on struck through oil. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 05/28/2023 1:21 pm I do not think it is oil. Looks like "stretched" metal of some kind. Maybe Mike could shed some light on this one. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Joshu - a Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 05/28/2023 1:31 pm Here's a picture of a different one. The streaks are only on this one area. Report this Post to the Staff
