Obverse looks like PMD and the reverse looks like a lamination. John1

Do laminations like this bring any kind of value to the coins or are they just considered face value.

Depends on their size generally. Guessing no premium here.

I'm on board with lamination issue. Laminations are sought after by crazed collectors who are obsessed with coins having lamination issues--and there aren't that many lamination collectors. Having said that, only the more dramatic examples of lamination issues have ++value. Your coin might get 20-30 cents from one of those crazed collectors.

Lol, exactly what I thought but I had to ask. Thank you for the explanation and the information on crazed collectors.

the topmost reverse picture does not show a lamination, so I gather these pics are from multiple coins

You can check to see if this is a Henning nickel counterfeit on your first pics of the coin. The Hennings weigh a bit heavy at 5.4 grams while the regular nickel weighs 5 grams. Note, there are various years of these counterfeit nickels, 1946-P being one of them.

I see nice lams and what looks like damage from a bb gun but have could been anything. One more shot and it would have been sited in.

The coin is a cull from the damage that happened. Si the value is just face value. Damage is never a good thing. It renders a coin into one that is just a face value coin.
