Spence Moderator United States 34439 Posts	Posted 05/21/2018 09:58 am @ColeBen, first welcome to CCF. Second, while better pics would help a little bit, when I blow up the picture of the reverse, I can see a series of parallel scratches as if this nickel spent some time on a belt sander. I suspect that the front of this coin has also been sanded. Your coin was damaged and is only worth face value.

I thought it looked like it was sanded down but hey I'm definitely not an expert so I figured I would show you guys. -Cole Marie Report this Post to the Staff
