mds308 Pillar of the Community United States 1721 Posts	Posted 12/01/2012 8:40 pm I wanted to share this with you guys. It was a 1945P War Nickel. My guess is it was run over by the Ole Number 9. The reverse has a cool look. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by mds308 12/01/2012 9:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff

NJ Bob Pillar of the Community United States 655 Posts	Posted 12/01/2012 9:48 pm As a kid in El Cerrito I used to put coins on the Santa Fe tracks to see how smashed they would get after the train passed over them. I remember they were pretty much flat as pancakes but you could still see the image. Wish I'd have held onto them. Report this Post to the Staff
