1964 nickle/ strike thru?

#1 Unread post by CopperFinger »

Good afternoon everyone. I don't get on site much lately been movingDaughter to Tennessee have been on the road ! I found this nickel while up their and were wondering if this were some type of strike thru running thru the date and under bottom of coat, or maybe some one got crazy with a dremal tool!! Also what could be causing what looks like some extra metal running from rim thru the word WE on coin? Seems like I have seen a few others asking about this extra metal.Once again thanks all and keep up the good work,, Thanks

Would a lamination issue before the strike be a possibility? I ask because it appears to be a lamination issue under the bust and it continues through the bust into the date. And the top of the 6 at the loop appears to be incomplete (not enough metal to fill the devise?) leading me to believe that metal may have been missing before the strike. Thanks for any thoughts or insight.
