moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 04/23/2018 08:04 am Probably grease, or an over polished die. Shield nickels are rarely collected by variety, although there are a few folks who delve into die types and die states. SN's had really tough times with die cracks and chips. In MOST instances they do not advance the value. Report this Post to the Staff
