Big difference in the full-coin pics and the regular pics. Definitely work done on the surface.

I always thought that nickel was "slightly" magnetic, but nothing like iron/steel.

I don't see any clashes.

I agree, just a long straight scratch.

It's just a rusty, damaged coin, nothing else.

As coinguy says, it's post mint damage. Someone got adventurous with chemicals and hand tools.

I'm with coinguy. If you think that you have an error or a variety, post it here first to see if it really IS what you think it is. In my book, a coin needs to be able to SELL (not priced) for 150-200 before it's worth ever sending to a TPG. If you just send a coin into a TPG for a cert, thinking th...

Yes, all the photos that you post are overmagnified and look like snake skin, not metal.

Over 50 year old replacement. Nice!

I never looked at the date of the original post. tks

I might be interested in the Canadian Victoria large cents. As a variety collector, I would need to see both sides of the coins. You can PM me to arrange for the photos to be emailed.

It's a fake camel-toe toonie, so it has a $2 value IF the merchant will accept it. It's worth nothing legally. The "die crack" that you have pointed out is part of the design. The bear is on a ledge or broken part of the ice. They are all like that.
