Based on your photo, it doesn't look like a Bare Belly and I am not sure what you mean by Tusk?

The only bare belly beaver pics I have ever seen are listed in the coinsandcanada web site for the 1990 nickel...
In my opinion yours doesn't look anything like it.

Did OP change the photos? The closeup I saw originally had a very small bare belly reminiscent of the 1990 variety. I understood that the lines were a result of die polishing, and that in the 1990 nickel, the variety was progressive due to repeated die polishing. I think the 1990 bare belly is best known because of the large extent of the damage.

Your title for this thread is very confusing. Neither your coin nor the ebay coin you linked to have any resemblance to the "bare belly" variety. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

Your coin does indeed have the same lines as the coin on ebay,no doubt it is a product of the same die. It is not worth $50.That particular seller uses ebay as a showcase for varieties he has discovered.He likely does not want to sell the coin,but would probably be interested to hear that you saw his listing and found one of these,ask him what he would like to call it. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning...

In your first loop photo, the lines remind me of concentric lathe lines. Do you not have a 1965 nickel with the same lines?
As far as the lines in the front of the head, that is a good question. I want to say it is a early die marker.
I have not searched the 1995 nickels.
