Looks like the side of the "O" has taken a hit and pushed the metal towards the centre. PMD

I believe so, PMD. What's someone in Lebanon doing with an OIV nickel?

Do you collect?

Yes, PMD is correct. Looks like a hit from circulation.

This did not occur at the mint during manufacture in the coining process.

Perhaps, but unlikely, the damage occurred at the mint during the bagging and distribution process - most likely the damage already noted above happened with the coin in circulation.

Wherever it occurred - this is not a mint strike error.

If you hover your mouse over the blue link for PMD or click on the hyperlink, you'll see that PMD = Post-Mint Damage. That is, something that happened to the coin after the minting process (some prefer the term "Post-Strike Damage").

Regardless... what you have is worth a nickel.

How did an American in Lebanon come about this coin? Did it travel with you in your pants pocket as change?

Nice close-up photo!
