ok so I do have a question. I was looking over some of my coins and only this time did I notice that my 1968S Jefferson nickel seems to have swirls in the metal on the reverse. one at the 1:00 and one at the 7:00. ive had this for awhile and when I got it it was in a 5 nickel sized flat coin holder. where ive left it and it still is. so I guess the big question would be are those from post mint or during minting, right? but really all feedback is awesome. im new so bare with me
thanks again
1968-S jefferson nickel possible error?

This is mechanical damage after it left the mint and is not a mint error or anything like that.
