Spence Moderator United States 34410 Posts	Posted 10/20/2018 8:23 pm Looks like a vise job to me. Your coin was sandwiched between two Jefferson nickels some time in 1943 or later and the squeezing of those coins made an impression on this one. Too bad as it ruins the numismatic value of all three coins. Added: Sorry @MB, but I just realized that this is your first post to CCF. Welcome!

Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 10/21/2018 7:06 pm Well, to get Ike bags from a bank you typically do have to fill out a form so I could see the possible confusion with a typo like that, even though we're talking buffs and not ikes.
