Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 05/21/2014 03:06 am It looks like a normal nickel to me. Is there something special about it that you see? Report this Post to the Staff
CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12817 Posts	Posted 05/21/2014 03:08 am , Msnats24 They're both standard nickels worth 5 cents. But if you're posting here you must have reason to believe the 2006 is special. What are your thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff
Msnats24 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 05/21/2014 03:10 am The 2006 face is darker than the rest of the coin. It dose not appear to be dirt. It's very odd looking, the back of the coin is a bit dis colored as well. Report this Post to the Staff

Msnats24 New Member United States 3 Posts	Posted 05/21/2014 6:08 pm I've tried cleaning the nickel with a Q-tip. The face is darker than the rest of the coin, nothing comes off onto the Q-tip. The coin does not have a dull finish on the front. On the back it also had some discoloration over the entire coin. I've looked at it with a pair of high power magnifying glasses and it really looks like it's just part of the coin. It's cool looking - I'll just add it to my collection. Thanks everyone for your input - greatly appreciated. Report this Post to the Staff
