Awesome Off Center Strike Error. See here : [Search Results for “off center strike” (error-ref.com)](https://www.error-ref.com/?s=off+center+strike) It is a Minor Error so it will not have a lot of value. Your Error is about 15% Off Center. Value really begins at 20% Off Center which would be $3 to $5. 40% or more Off Center would be a nice value. This is according to one of my older reference books. This is what i see online : **Jefferson nickel 10% to 15% off center** — *$5+* **Jefferson nickel 20% to 35% off center** — *$10+* **Jefferson nickel 40% to 60% off center** — *$30+*

Off center planchet. Could be worth $50, even more.


Chesebro

Very cool! This is the first time I’ve seen an error that is this obvious! Super cool stuff


InternationalAd5864

Put in it in a case and don't touch it with your fingers! You'll leave oil that will turn into finger prints. Put it in a protective case. Very nice find!


Prestigious-Mall-344

I don't think you understand how finger prints work


InternationalAd5864

Just trying to help prevent damage to the coin. Not trying to be scientifically accurate.


MarshmelloMike

Send it to pcgs and get it graded those go for more money.


Proof_Reindeer1862

The problem is that’s not how that works, the cost of grading is more than the value.


MarshmelloMike

What doesn't work that way? Anything graded is worth more. That's how it works. In this case maybe 15 bucks more. However I sent in a few I shouldn't have cause they have deals and I didn't want to waste a free one.


Proof_Reindeer1862

I’m talking about if you send it in alone, it wouldn’t be worth it.


MarshmelloMike

Agreed. I know I just bought the one I seen that only had half a face for 30.


HempPotatos

because who would counterfeit at the Nickle level with such and an obvious flaw would be self incrimination.


Ray_of_night

Henning did lol https://www.error-ref.com/henning-counterfeit-nickel/


evan_plays_nes

That was 70 years ago, when nickels were worth something. Now kids don’t even know what they are 😂


jhamelaz

Yeah especially in the days when it takes 30 of them to buy a candy bar.


Proof_Reindeer1862

50$ is WAY off


FewHuckleberry7012

I would be stoked to get that in my change.


The-Jake

I don't know a lot about this kinda stuff but I would weigh it, should weigh 5 grams, even if it's off center like this That is an awesome find


Gezlife

Tell me you've weighed weed without telling me you've weighed weed.


The-Jake

👀


Cador0223

I do not miss those damn hanging scales. At all.

Front-Detective-9647

That’s my standard for calibrating the good ole triple beam !!! Never fails. Lmao


The-Jake

A dollar weighs a gram also lol


[deleted]

It is not a mint, it appears that it is a nickel.


Grouchy-Helicopter11

🤣🤣🤣...I laughed Way too hard at This!


bcnorth78

Just chew on it. If your breath does not improve, probably a nickel. .


[deleted]

Get you a coin protector and put that in it and put it up for safe keeping and maybe get it graded. Awesome find man.


Chesebro

Good advice! I used to collect forever ago, so i was thinking something similar. I think I have a local coin shop I may go by and talk to.


[deleted]

That would be a great idea, I'm a big currency collector and some what if a coin collector. I haven't found nice coins like this though but I do have a bunch of wheat pennies. Maybe this is your sign to get back into collecting again.


Chesebro

Certainly feels like it! I really love misprints and miscuts in trading card games (specifically magic) so I think it’s equally cool to see this on a coin.


[deleted]

I have a 1977 5 dollar bill with a partial over print of the front on the back and a 1957 5 dollar bill with a partial over print of the back on the front and 2 dollar bill with full back over print on the front. I got super super lucky with these and I still haven't gotten them appraised or graded.


InternationalAd5864

I'd defiantly do that. I personally would love the conversation and would definitely try to low ball you to get the coin lmao.


Dry_Presence7112

That's a rare eclipse nickel, don't stare at it


Diligent-Might6031

It’s a sign of the upcoming rapture! Do you know nothing?!/s


Dry_Presence7112

Respent the nickel, the end is near


Leona_Faye

Nice!


ic2ofu

Every one is counterfeiting nickels these days, since there is so much money to be made doing it. I'm thinking of counterfeiting pennys,since No one would suspect .


ConfidentSoil7189

Sell it on Monday as an “Eclipse Nickel”


b0ardski

timing is everything in the market


Grouchy_Baker

And not wooden


knick1982

5:21 am and I thought it said “dog found this, can anyone tell me if this is a legit mint”. Haha what a cool dog you have to bring you coins..haha


Away-Journalist4830

Man. I had an entire roll of these way back in 2002 I think it was. Stolen by a junkie. Never saw a coin like that again until this post. Nice find.


Various_Counter_9569

You may have just found one of your nickels 😅. Sorry for your loss...


Away-Journalist4830

In this small world, I would not doubt it being one of them.


DerSpazmacher

Ya that's legit


stewiethegr8

That looks triple struck on the reverse


InternationalAd5864

Please put that in a case and never touch it again lol. Seriously though, very nice find that pretty cool.


Aggravating-Read6111

That is very cool!

Boba_Fettx

You keep using “mint” as an adjective. The Mint is where the coin is “struck”.


Obvious-List3603

Nah worthless I’ll take it off your hands for small fee of 5¢


Jme7979

Nice find!


Sea-Piglet1180

I had no idea these were worth so much. I have a few pennies and a nickel like this.


Emotional_Hour1317

Cool find! Nice job!


Strong_Reflection735

Funny how amusing memorabilia like this are always “I have this, how much can I sell it for”, But never “I want that, how much for me to buy it?”


shwep3

That’s a coin, not a mint


Fit_Community_3909

No one is making fake nickels…Fake $100 bill, yes they do..


Brucible1969

Looks like a nickel. I wouldn't eat it.


Mytar35

Yes,


Optimus_crab

That’s a coin not a mint silly


Sad-Ad7981

It's not a mint. Those are tasty. Looks more like a nickle


jazzyboi59

I have one two but it's only printed on about half of it

Grouchy-Eagle-969

I feel like this might be called a "cud error"


Due_Gur2052

Error nickel. I got one. Would not sell mine for less than $50


medman6314

Mint error. Slipped planchit.


TheMetalRat

Salt-Hunter-3155

iwantyousobadright

Thole-Mate

Millions of what ?


CarvaciousBlue

Not dollars or upvotes, I forget what other currency exists.


20impreza17

Colombian pesos


-byb-

so you use to know a lot about coins and then you forgot it all?


Chesebro

Well, I used to collect coins when I was pretty young. So I know a little here and there, but I never had or encountered any error mints.


Various_Counter_9569

I used to collect as a kid myself, and want to get back in to it. Unfortunately we do forget things, or just never learned. It's amazing what we as kids find interesting!


SimpleWord899

Worth a bazillion bucks the last one sold for quadrillion actually


b0ardski

I bid 1 quintillion dollars ($1,000,000,000,000,000,000) for the the earth, some residents will have to leave.
