I have this nickel that I think has many errors:

1- weird design in the back
2- It looks like the border has a slight offset on both sides
3- no mint mark

I don't know about you guys but I find this interesting lol, I'm new to this place, I've been looking at this for about a week&
I NEED HELP!

Easy one first... no mintmark means it was struck in Philadelphia (S = San Francisco, D = Devner).

"Offset border"? Not quite certain as to what you mean? Alignment? (orientation on the coin?).

"Weird design in the back"? You haven't shown us the reverse (yet?)

to the CCF! We welcome all of your questions!

to the CCF!

The mints didn't put mint marks on any US coins in 1965, 1966 or 1967. The transition from 90% silver coins to clad caused a huge coin shortage due to hoarding of all denominations. The removal of mint marks was part of an effort to discourage this. Mint marks returned to US coins in 1968.
