Resuming nickel search again, 3 boxes produce 3 War Nickels, 3 proofes (1967sms, 1980 cameo, 1987 Deep cameo), and a 1955.

$20 in Nickels. Nothing super, a few hole fillers for the album. And a strange new coin shown below.

Both look like laminations rather than die cracks or breaks.

I've went through 2 more boxes from the same bank after finding the 11 liberty V nick's in that box....I haven't found any more. I did find a decent 1955 and 2 War Nickels. OO

Quote: Both look like laminations rather than die cracks or breaks. I do believe you are correct hockingzig. I called it wrong on both coins. Anyone know what causes this to begin? The various definitions I've seen are somewhat unclear. In the case of this 62 D, was there a defect in the planchet laminations then under high pressure of the die strike, caused the split at the weakest point of the outer layer?
