eagle_eye_18 Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 05/26/2015 3:30 pm Welcome to CCF! This looks like a normal Jefferson nickel to me. Could you please specify where on the coin you are referring to an error? Could you please describe the error? That would help to narrow down pick up points for members here.

ANDR01D New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 05/27/2015 08:12 am I'm working on getting a better image. I was wondering if this was some sort of die related error where some of the numbers were flat and the date not not having uniform wear. I'm totally new to this.

Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 05/28/2015 6:26 pm I don't think it's a mint error. I think I see some damage and that leads me to believe that the flattened 6 is just wear/damage from some slot machine or something. Report this Post to the Staff

scstrawn Pillar of the Community United States 536 Posts	Posted 05/28/2015 9:17 pm I think the date is actually upside down. It reads 1961, when right-side up would be 1961. Report this Post to the Staff
