Mint Error. Nickel 2021-P reverse Kite tail from Monticello

#1 Unread post by gerardfallison »

Recently started roll hunting and have a nickel roll all new, well 2021. In this roll were 37 nickels with a line from the second window from left on Monticello, runs down through the M and many run all they way to bottom of coin, some stop sooner. To naked eye it looks like a scratch on surface, but after I saw this line on several coins, I took a jewelers loop and see this line is raised. I have been waiting to see if anyone posts on this, but not seeing it. Have you heard of this?

Images sized too small. I do think die crack or delamination.

Sorry my images are so poor, but I only have my phone camera. More news on this. I went to same bank last Friday and was given more Loomis roles and again in one of the roles, I found another 17 of these die crack nickels, brings my total up to 55 with this same line. Hopefully someone else will come across one of these and post a better photo.

Did you take the link I posted above for taking pictures easily? If you want an answer, just take the few minutes it will to see how easy it can be with a phone camera.

Scroll up, look for the link, and click on it.
