At one point someone posted an errored nickel with a die crack through the "s" mint mark, making it look like a "$". A few people said they had the same error and I'm very intrested in getting one soon.

Could the person that posted the pic, please post it again?

I think its one of the best errors I have ever seen.

    What year was it? I went into my local coin shop and the guy looked at me like I was crazy.

    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    This Die Crack occurs on most years of Warnickels,
    and other years in the 1940's also.....
