cmajlz Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 07/14/2015 4:10 pm I believe this nickel may have a struck through. It goes from the left (with a possible remnant still in the M) to the F in OF. What leads me to believe this is struck through is the S in CENTS was stamped after the possible struck through was made. Any impressions?

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 07/14/2015 8:50 pm See how the S is fully formed. Not a strikethrough Report this Post to the Staff
BlueSolo Pillar of the Community United States 740 Posts	Posted 07/14/2015 9:39 pm I'm thinking this is an improper mixture of metals. Fairly common with these older nickels from what I have seen. What year is it by the way? 40s/50s? Report this Post to the Staff
cmajlz Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 1:14 pm You guessed it - it's a 1954 Report this Post to the Staff
cmajlz Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 07/15/2015 1:49 pm The streak appears to be incuse. Does that rule out an improper metal mixture? Report this Post to the Staff
