Nice. It looks to me like a planchet crack, but I'll wait for the experts. Cool coin.

Thanks ! Question. If it is, is it a valuable error to keep ?

I don't see why you wouldn't keep a Shield nickel. Yes, it ads a small amount to the coin. Not a lot though. |

Nope. This coin in that condition is only worth about $10... However, I would check under a loupe for a much more rare 1883/2.

I too think it's either a planchet crack or lamination.
