Hows this for a mis strike on a five cent coin? My daughter found it today. I think it is 2003 but could be 2005.

Nice find,looks like a Ramstrike, thats only the 4th I've ever seen,i own the other 3.
Hard to tell the date but looks more like a 5 more than a 3.

Here are a few more images. Unfortunately there is some corrosion on this coin but I can't complain.

Excellent find. Makes me wonder how a coin like this can be in circulation for all those years and not be snapped up much earlier.

Thanks for the feedback and yes my daughter was rewarded, however I won't let her see some of the replies she might ask for more.

Congratulations on a very nice find! I wish I had a daughter that searched coins for me.
