Not sure about this one, I'm guessing Die Deterioration. Any help would be appreciated.

I see a VLDS nickel that has served its time.

Yes no doubt about the late die stage. I think the ridges might be from excessive die wear due to horizontally misaligned dies.

Perhaps the worst year for Die Deterioration but here is a very extreme example on the reverse of a 1980-D Jefferson nickel. Coin submitted by Gary Kelly of MI May 2005.

Whew! That's a shame, you can hardly tell it's a nickel.
