CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 10/16/2017 2:12 pm I found a couple of these the other day in a bank wrap roll. I thought I'd share it with ya'll because it' s very strong and the coin is in nice condition. My pictures show every little imperfection; it looks nice in hand. I've been fortunate to find several of these, and each time my heart skips a beat. I've been even more fortunate that it does pick back up again. For the newer members, this is a coin that can be found in circulation. The error was created on the die when the die inadvertently scraped sideways against the hub as it was receiving it's design elements. Due to the strength and number of trails, this one is classified as a Major Trail Die. The trails running through the steps further classify it with Wavy Steps. * Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. Titles are Important! * Report this Post to the Staff

CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 10/16/2017 4:52 pm It's funny Tunnioc, that's exactly the way Rackster described it, when I found my first one months ago, "dripping". Another good name for it Crazyb0. I've found at least 15, maybe 20 of this variety, I've sold around five or six, not sure I can part with this one though. The coin is in probably the best shape of them all. Thanks all for the comments and pics, glad you enjoyed it. Edited by CoinMasters 10/16/2017 4:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I never even looked for this particular variety ... on any date ... despite my 374,000 nickels searched. Outstanding example CoinMasters ... appreciate you sharing and educating ... as that the mission of the CCF. I learned something here ... and much appreciated.

CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 10/17/2017 01:38 am Neat pic USSID18. Buddy I think you should get plenty of P mints in Illinois, keep searching. You're welcome Nickelsearcher, like you, I try to give back some. It's the least I can do at the place that has taught me so much. You don't have to look for these, when it's there you can't miss it. There's Trail Dies of lesser degrees in just about all the Moderns. You'll see the trails in 99% of them around the building and below it. They've always been around but the single squeeze hubbing process has enhanced them. Just FYI, it has also produced more non-major Doubled Dies. You may have already noticed, but to really appreciate this coin, there are trails in the building (two under each end window), all along the foundation, and under United States Of America. There are also faint ones under Pluribus, but I concentrated my pics on the others. Thanks everyone for looking. Report this Post to the Staff
