CaptainJS New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 03/09/2010 05:43 am I could never really figure out what happened here. It's a 1964 nickel. This side looks like it melted. http://www.flickr.com/photos/sirius...350/sizes/o/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/sirius...487/sizes/o/ This side looks normal http://www.flickr.com/photos/sirius...043/sizes/o/ Any ideas?

tights24 Pillar of the Community United States 2254 Posts	Posted 03/11/2010 10:07 am I've never seen a nickel in acid, but it doesn't look like what a cent looks like. A cent retains much of it's features and literally just becomes thinner. This actually looks like the metal moved, which makes me think along the lines of rockdude that this was the result of heat/blowing. Report this Post to the Staff
