Hi guys,

I have this 1971 D Jefferson nickel and what appears to be ghosting on the Obverse running across Jefferson's head. Can someone please confirm this? Also, I what is the raised bump on the reverse running through the "O" in the word 'Monticello"?

I thought ghosting only occurred on thinner coins?

Appears to be a die clash that has been polished

Or?

Which would help understand why the non-typical images on the faces are not crisp.

Earle ghosting is another definition of PIDT. This is the remnants of a clash.
