I found this 1964 D nickel with what appears to be some sort of die break attaching "States of America". What is your opinion? Have you seen it before?

Might be just Die Deterioration or a lamination issue.

That 64 reminded me. Do not know the mintage figures for the P and D
64 but I seem to find more of those in bank rolls on average than other dates. Constantly find at least 2 or 3 in every roll and have for years. I keep looking for that stupid "Pluridus" Emphasis on the D (worn B) die det. I guess, a habit from long ago. :)

Looks like extreme wear on the die. If it were a Cud the edge of the die would not be round. It appears that the only area affected is next to the rim and not the rim as a Cud would be. Nickel dies wear faster as the copper/nickel composition affected the dies more. Not as bad as the Steel cents, but real close.

The mintage for the 1964 D was 1,787,297,160 and the 1964 no mark was 1,028,622,762. These are based on "Coins" price guide.
