Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 12/04/2025 2:19 pm @abu, first salam alaykum and welcome to CCF. Second, it would help if you described exactly what aspect of this coin you suspect might be an error. By the orientation of your picture, I'm guessing that you mean the slight distortion in the date, especially the 4 and 5. Is that right? If so, this distortion along with the textured field surrounding the date suggest to me that this coin was struck with a tired-out die. This isn't an error though and doesn't add value to this nickel.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73937 Posts	Posted 12/04/2025 4:28 pm To CCF! I agree with above. It's Die Deterioration. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8743 Posts	Posted 12/04/2025 6:12 pm As others have stated, extreme deterioration from a worn out die that struck this coin. In addition, the coin may have been buffed/whizzed, as the perimeter of the coin looks lighter than the rest and would help explain the very odd looking 45. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
