toyzz New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 06/03/2017 11:08 am Hello. I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far. I came across this 2001 D Nickel today. It weighs 4.8 grams and it is definitely a bit smaller and thinner than other nickels. Anyone have some thoughts on what is going on with this one? Thanks in advance! Report this Post to the Staff

toyzz New Member United States 35 Posts	Posted 06/03/2017 12:29 pm Thanks for the info, guys. Now I feel kind of silly spending 15 minutes searching for "Nickels struck on wrong planchet." I'll just delete my browser history and pretend like it never happened...ha ha. Report this Post to the Staff

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 06/07/2017 10:53 pm I am thinking not a Dryer Coin, but one that the front edge was ground away to have it fit in a holder showing the reverse. Like this, but showing the reverse Report this Post to the Staff
