spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 02/25/2018 03:37 am You have a 1943-P War Nickel (35% silver) with damage. That is most definitely not a lamination error. Here are a few closeup pics of a 1944-P nickel with a lamination flaw: In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff
Shoesnsocks Valued Member United States 114 Posts	Posted 02/25/2018 04:01 am Ah man o well, at least it's a cool old nickel. Thanks for those pics. I wanted to put up one more pic of something. At first I thought it might be something cool like a misplaced mint mark, but it's too small. It's cool that it retained it's character while everything around it got faded out. Also kinda cool part of the "O" in Monticello is missing. This Nickel looks like it's got a cool story behind it. Report this Post to the Staff
