TheDiv27 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 3:39 pm A friend came across this nickel in a bucket of change yesterday. We've been trying to find some info on it including value. It is a 2014 P Jefferson nickel, 6 steps on Monticello and COPPER! Can anyone tell me anything about this coin? Is it a fluke? Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19146 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 5:01 pm Interested in knowing an accurate weight. Sadly, those circulation nicks on the steps compromised any FS designation (in my opinion). Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95489 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 6:24 pm Well the weight is spot on for what it should weigh, so I think this coin is just heavily toned or was buried at some point Collecting since 1972.

TheDiv27 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 6:36 pm Is it possible this was accidentally monted on a sheet meant for pennies? Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 6:40 pm Given the weight, not possible. Edited by Coinfrog 07/04/2022 6:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff
T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 8:35 pm Well first of all I do not see any steps at all . As far as the color I have to admit I'm stumped . The even all around brown is very odd . I'm going to say not a fake coin , not plated , not a dirt find , not painted , and not any kind of environmental issue . Report this Post to the Staff
silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 9:13 pm Nice fake coin. Compare the realy coin with your and you will see my statement. Report this Post to the Staff
Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 9:34 pm If I had to take a guess I'd say a fountain nickel, sitting around a bunch if cents in a fountain with chemicals. Report this Post to the Staff

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 07/04/2022 10:03 pm I agree with Dear! What chemicals could bring the Ni red-brown? Report this Post to the Staff

If in a fountain I imagine chlorine and maybe a few other chemicals. Other wise no clue. Report this Post to the Staff
