Hey there money junkies. So I was going through a roll of nickels I found a 2000 ?mm that had a higher voice than the rest. No pics at the moment sorry, but how is a picture gonna sound. Anyways I decided to throw it on my scale. It was 4.89g where as my other 2000s all ranged between 5 and 5.05g. does anhone have an idea as to why or what is going on? Thanks in advance

Maybe a flan crack? Pics actually could help...

Pictures would help, if you can get them.

Is the strike weaker on either side? (Letters shorter in height?) If so it might be a thin planchet.
Are both sides readable? (Possible split planchet if one side is not looking normal)
But pictures are always better.

I will indeed take some pics when I get home from work.Is there value to something like this or just another singer with a higher voice?

Here is the best I could. I just don't see why it sounds different and weighs less.

With a weight of 5g and a tolerance of .18g,
the nickel is well within tolerance.

But why the different tone? That's my biggest curiosity
