Description
Jefferson Nickel on a Dime Blank
Saddle Struck, MS64
Undated Jefferson Nickel -- Saddle Struck on a Dime Blank --
MS64 NGC. 2.3 gm. This multiple mint error began its life as a
dime blank. It skipped the upset mill, which would have given it a
rim and promoted it to planchet status. Instead, it was fed between
two sets of Jefferson nickel dies (a single modern press can have
several sets of dies), with each set imparting a strike
approximately 85% off center. One of the obverse dies was blocked
by a nickel planchet (not included). The force of the hammer dies
caused the center of the unstruck portion to bend, hence the
"saddle" error nomenclature. A scratch is noted on the unstruck
portion of the reverse.
