Unfortunately, I am unable to read the mint date on this coin, but I've included some pictures. Again, I could use some help from anyone with knowledge of error coins to determine what I have here, if anything. Thanks for your help with this second coin, too! Report this Post to the Staff

There is no Large Mint Mark above the Monticello (like your other posting has). Edited by oih82w8 11/07/2011 8:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 11/08/2011 01:12 am The large number of marks on both faces coupled with a rim rolled inward indicates a Dryer Coin. Simply put, this nickel got stuck in the fin of a commercial clothes dryer at some point in its life and repeated tumbled against the steel drum. This repeated tumbling action slowly rolled the rim inward and tumbling with other coins created many marks on the faces. Report this Post to the Staff
