Paisa Valued Member Canada 387 Posts	Posted 08/19/2013 8:12 pm The thing that makes it believable is that weight of the coin is the same, although I have no idea how much weight loss would happen if this was worn down and if that weight loss would be within tolerances. I have toonies with similar condition of the locking area as seen on the obverse and have not been able to figure out why that condition with no upstand/rim happens. Does a condition like that suggest a weak strike? Hopefully we will see something written about this or perhaps can take a look at it at one of the shows we are planning to meet up at to discuss another coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Wear does not decreases the weight significantly in nickel coins. Other than web forums I have no other venue to publish this type of material. It is "just" an error, not a variety or an important technical topic. I will have the coin with me at the Toronto show. Report this Post to the Staff
