Description
MS64 1979 Jefferson Nickel
Struck on a Steel Washer
1979 5C Jefferson Nickel--Struck on a Steel Washer--MS64
NGC. Ex: New England Collection. 2.5 gm. The appearance of this
remarkable mint error is reminiscent of annular gold dollar
patterns from the 19th century. The washer had a central hole,
which appears slightly out of round due to metal flow during the
strike. The diameter of the washer was slightly less than that of a
nickel, and this fact allowed it to fit within nickel dies yet pass
through any riddlers designed to prevent struck fragments from
reaching circulation. Toned steel-gray and aquamarine. Slightly
uncentered toward 6 o'clock with a portion of the date and E
PLURIBUS UNUM off the flan.From The New England Collection of Error Coins.
