Titles are Important! * I found this nickel today I'm somewhat familiar with strike errors I'm not sure if this would be one because I cannot find anything like it anywhere on the internet this is a 1974 Jefferson nickel you can see scoring in the bust Report this Post to the Staff

Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 06/25/2018 10:27 pm This is actually relatively common damage, it happens when automatic coin rollers scratch the surface from presumably the roll crimping. Its usually most visible on quarters http://goccf.com/t/189953 and cents http://goccf.com/t/259349 Edited by Adam_E 06/25/2018 10:29 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74634 Posts	Posted 06/25/2018 10:34 pm It's Coin Wrapping Machine Damage, because it's circular scrapes. This is very common as it happens a lot to other coins during the coin wrapping process. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 06/25/2018 11:14 pm Don't think coin wrapper. It is PSD(post strike damage) but looks more a downward foreign object contact with a slight twist... On the lower bust. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/25/2018 11:19 pm Just a damaged coin. They never list damaged coins. They view them as culls. (something to be spent) They only list the die varieties by the different companies. The better the coin, the more it is worth. When they look like yours, they go back to work.
