Hello all! I'm not sure how I acquired my nickel, but it looks like it was run over by a car and it scraped the date off~ I put it in my scrap pile!
I saw a post last week of a nickel that looked like mine and had the same kind of scrapes on it~ So I'm posting my pictures to see if I can get some confirmation that this was possibly done at the mint. If not, I'm naming him "road rash"!

It's PMD.
Impossible to have been done during the striking of the coin.

Yes, it looks like it was run over by a car and it scraped the date off.

Late Edit: I apologize, that was a little smart-alecky on my response.

looks to me like coins we used to fish out under the belts at the grocery store, the would throw coins on the belt, then the coins would get swept under the belt, and sit down there until maintenance was preformed on the cash register lanes, when they pulled the metal tray off, all the coins showed wear like this.. they sat there with the belts, and metal rollers turning on them for months..
