The description says extra metal at the N in unum but to the right side of the memorial I see something I can't explain. Image is from website so I can't supply a better one.

Spence Moderator United States 34395 Posts	Posted 05/19/2024 7:51 pm @see, I'm seeing a lamination, which is pretty common for these War Nickels. I think that the "extra" pieces of metal are just flakes from the lamination which are partly detached and potentially moved around.

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 05/19/2024 8:21 pm Agree, no big deal. Lamination issues are commonly found on the warnicks. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94786 Posts	Posted 05/19/2024 10:39 pm could be a lamination or just a circulation hit - hard to tell with this image - in either case, nothing to write home about..
