goterps04 Valued Member United States 61 Posts	Posted 09/25/2016 3:08 pm Newb here. I can't tell for sure but think this is around 1960. Is this considered an error coin? Is there terminology for the type of error? Wondering how to describe it if I list it for sale. Thanks. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7618 Posts	Posted 09/25/2016 3:42 pm Most likely it is a 1980 nickel because it has an obverse "P" mintmark. It is a very slight off-center strike worth a couple of dollars over face value at the most. Report this Post to the Staff
