coinhunter58 Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 08/19/2022 1:15 pm I found this old nickel in my collection. The T in United looks weird compared to the normal T on a Jefferson nickel. Is this PMD of some sort? Report this Post to the Staff

coinhunter58 Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 08/19/2022 2:24 pm I agree. Best guess is PMD damage. I don't think I've ever seen one damaged in this way. I just thought it was a cool find. Here's a closer shot of it. It looks almost like it was made that way. Report this Post to the Staff
coinhunter58 Valued Member United States 72 Posts	Posted 08/19/2022 2:38 pm I was a toolmaker for over 25 years. So, I know how funny things can happen and am very intrigued by those misnomers. I've had this coin for over 30 years and never noticed this until I started looking closer at them through a microscope. I'm retired now and have more time to spend in the hunt. :) Thanks for all the comments on my find. Report this Post to the Staff
