Was looking over a few coins and noticed this partial outline of the 51 on a Jefferson nickel. What can you make of it? The coin does have a VEDS strike about it.

The more qualities observed in a coin, the more desirable that coin becomes!

    Solvent front?

    Just toning/ discoloration

    Guessing there was some sort of moisture on the surface and that is a halo from after it evaporated.

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
