Tammie62 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 02/12/2022 3:10 pm I recently have started inspecting my change. I found this nickle and alot of the letters on the back are wavy or mishapened. Is this worth any thing? Report this Post to the Staff

Even damaged though, I would still save it just because of how old it is.
