This 1962 Jefferson Nickel seems to have a die crack across the head. Could anybody verify this? Need a opinion or some advice...should it be graded?

The monitor is distorting the pictures too much for a positive ID. However, it looks like there might be a lamination error. Please try to post the actual pics and not the screen so we can better tell.

Common delamination caused by impurities in the alloy. You will find these a lot the more you search coins.
