    definately doesnt look like a legit error to me. Looks intentional, somehow, someway.

    That is what happens when a fast mover (Train) hits a nickle and shoots it out. Deffinantly a man made error.

    Not a mint error.

    Probably an Anvil and Hammer damaged coin.

    I was taken once for about 8 bucks. The seller took a nickle and a cent and squeezed them in a vice transfering the image...

    He got me.

    Looks like a partial rairoad rim...it slid partway off the railroad track before the whole wheel got to it...image

    If it were legit, I'd expect to see the relief and text stretched as it approached the point where the "error" is.

    The only error I see is listing it in the Error Section of eBay coins.
    Post Mint damage for sure.
    Change that we can believe in is that change which is 90% silver.

    Looks like someone started putting it through a set of nip rollers.

    I had a "hammer and sickle" error, once- does that count? image
