    This is not a well struck coin that has seen some hard circulation.
    I see what you are talking about but I cannot identify what it is for sure. But it is interesting

    Is it raised or depressed?? That information would help in determining what the cause might be. Cheers, RickO

    from what i can tell it's a bubble that happened when the metal wasn't bonded good to the core, happens a lot
    nothing major just a minor error

    I question this diagnosis.
    This is a nickel Does it have an outer layer bonded to an inner core?

    ??? Nickels are made from a solid alloy. There is no "core".
