Dearborn Moderator United States 97435 Posts	Posted 06/02/2022 7:38 pm Well this is a silver war time nickel. It looks like a weird lamination issue or something. When posting up images, you cannot use the same file name. each one has to be unique. can you post up the obverse image? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

macmercury Pillar of the Community United States 5833 Posts	Posted 06/04/2022 7:48 pm Maybe bad mixture of metal alloy or some form of environmental damage? Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 06/04/2022 8:32 pm I never saw a war time Nickel that looked like that and believe me I have seen many 35% silvers in my collecting years . I have to go with macmercury's comment on this one . Report this Post to the Staff
Jerad Jestice New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/04/2022 8:56 pm I don't know about being buried. I got it at a local store getting change back. Report this Post to the Staff
Jerad Jestice New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/04/2022 8:59 pm I have every one of the wartime nickels and it stands out dramatically from the blue and dark grey that time has put on them. I can see bits of copper in the dark spots. Really not sure about it. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 06/04/2022 10:04 pm to the CCF This nickel looks like electric damage. We used to put pennies in a screw in fuse holder with a blown fuse to complete the circuit. Maybe they were richer than me and used a nickel. Report this Post to the Staff
