Folks - this looks like a lamination error to me. I think it is a 1940 nickel. Anything special about this one or just a fairly ho-hum lamination?   |

It's called an attached lamination, hasn't peeled off, it is more popular than the laminations that have split or peeled off. Nice find! Jeff

TO me it looks like a piece of silver was struck through a scrap onto the coin. Nicer than a lamination.

My first thought was struck through extra metal by the way its shaped and sits on top or one of the oddest / coolest lam I've seen in a while.
Close up may clarify above and date as well as I'd only be guessing the date at this point. Just a rookies opinion. Thanks, Doug.

I have decided to sell this one - if it was less worn I would have kept it. Thanks for the input in helping identify it.

Nice lamination find.. I have to say I think its a 46... if you look at where the curl of a typical 6 would come back to connect to the six to make the circle, you can see a small, very small portion of that showing imo.. However I may be wrong. Just my opinion.

I have taken a little time to think it over, (almost two years). I agree it's a 1946.
