I don't often see woodie nickels, so that's kind of cool. From a distance the "struck through" looks like damage since the rim is involved. Up close, though, one can see the graduated appearance of a Greaser. Good find!

I think this is a lamination issue. Note how the affected area is in a straight line. Laminations were also common on the silver nickels as well. Just that one area appears to be affected. (like a lamination could look like)

Coop thanks for looking .. are you talking about the area I thought was grease filled or do you mean the whole coin could be lamination ? Are the pictures sufficient if not what kind of pictures can I get that would help you determine which it is? I found anther War Nickel this week and posted it , it had lamination but didn't have the toning this one does but the lamination that peeled did have the same appearance as this. Again thank you .

A lamination line just on the area affected is from Right side of the buildings rim to the 'US' on PLURIBUS. Note a line on that area that looks straight to the rims. The rim has peel off a bit in some area. If this were a grease error, the rim would remain in tact, but it is not there. (note at 1-2:00 area) Hope this helps.

Ok thanks coop . It does help I will look closer at that area from another angle instead of straight on . The lamination peel on th the other War Nickel I posted on here was easier to see . I'll let you know what I find . Thanks!
