MS70Error5 Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 01/13/2016 12:52 am I want to mention that this coin is very sharply struck and SLIGHTLY reflective. I am not sure if it is a great MS coin, or an SMS coin that has been circulated a little bit. If there is a way to tell from the coin design, I would appreciate the information. This coin is doubled/notched on the reverse on multiple words. I believe God may have Blessed me with a new variety because I cannot find a match on the usual websites. The notching is minor, except for FIVE and CENTS. There is a large spread on the F and I. The N in CENTS has an even larger spread with clearly two left legs of the N present. I pointed out those two legs with a green and light green arrow. I welcome your feedback. Report this Post to the Staff

seal006 Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 3:16 pm As far as SMS, very hard to tell without full coin shots. As far as doubled die, looks promising. I see some nice notching and seperation, so long as it is not glare that is deceiving me. I do not know a lot about nickels. Report this Post to the Staff
Rackster Pillar of the Community United States 4809 Posts	Posted 01/14/2016 5:39 pm Yes, the glare is making it a little tough to see - but looks promising. It's hard to get shots on proof or sms coins (for my setup) because of the reflective surface. Good luck MS! Report this Post to the Staff
