Hello Everyone,

I came across this 2017D Nickel. I want to share it with you, because it is as the title says, and a bit strange.

This coin is pretty much flat, but there is no sign of scraping wear. The worn areas are pretty smooth. It has a glossy surface. I have some ideas but let you experts say what caused the president to close his lips.

Looks like severe Die Deterioration to me. Another possibility, is it could be an early stage Dryer Coin, but I think it's just bad Die Deterioration. We've seen ones just like yours on this forum.

I agree with E.V. I have see a lot of DDD in that year. Yours is a very extreme example.

Poor Tom looks like agents from the Matrix may have been questioning him.

The weight of this coin is 4.959 grams.
