jprine Pillar of the Community United States 1599 Posts	Posted 07/19/2009 10:34 pm I found several nickels that don't look right while searching rolls this week (just started doing this after finding this site-my wife thinks I am crazy-she may be right). The '85 below seems off center to the right; so much that the 5 goes right to the edge of the coin. The '84 does the same to the left plus the right side looks to have two rims and the P mint mark looks odd. Is this a common thing-I found several nickels that seemed off center. Any ideas/suggestions for someone new to this. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 07/20/2009 02:28 am I believe you have two nickels with slightly misaligned die strikes, I bet the reverse is centered on both. no real importance as a mint error. to the forum Edited by TNG 07/20/2009 02:30 am Report this Post to the Staff
XavierOfGreen Pillar of the Community United States 2589 Posts	Posted 07/20/2009 7:50 pm misaligned dies are the most commonly found error in Jefferson nickels. Only ones off by around 5% or greater are worth around a dollar or so. And ones misaligned so bad that they are missing part of the design are sometimes worth a bit more Report this Post to the Staff
