Tonskii Herrera Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) Ive come across a nickel that has a scratch underneath the date. You could clearly see the date is stamped over the scratch. Which means the planchet was scratched before it was struck. My question, is this considered a mint error? Has anyone seen it before? Would it be worth getting graded?

Conder101 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Doen't appear to be a scratch. might be a lamination (pre-strike). second possibility it some tipe or mark or grease which then wore off the high points in circulation but is still present in the protected areas.
