Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6464 Posts	Posted 08/18/2025 1:21 pm I bought this 1954-S nickel on ebay based on the PCGS TrueView images. There is an odd ridge weaving through the S, and what appears to be notching on the top right termination. I cannot match it to any known RPM on Wexler or Variety Vista, either by shape, position, or markers. I will defer full coin photos to TrueView: PCGS MS64 5¢, Certification #59810180 Candidate RPM under different lighting angles: Edited by Brandmeister 08/18/2025 1:22 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6464 Posts	Posted 01/05/2026 10:38 pm In the process of desk cleanup and excess coin liquidation, I checked this nickel again with an actual microscope. There does not appear to be anything significant to warrant an RPM submission. I think the TrueView pic is a bit misleading, and pushing my little clip-on iPad scope to its limits created the illusion of something worth investigating. This coin is going on the Liquidate pile for 2026. Report this Post to the Staff
