Michaeljames75 New Member United States 11 Posts	Posted 07/07/2016 11:02 pm I found this nickel in a roll today..I stuck out because it shines bright..all the letters and numbers are bold like New.. But after a closer look it has many flaws..looks like it has a coat over the original..but it's not..look at the pic of the two nickels together..the shiny one Monticello building looks run down there's no fine lines..looks like there's a chunk of something between five cents...can anyone help me with this?
