A MS67 too!

 

I went to my local coin dealer in Green Bay. They sell more trading cards than coins. Not surprising yeh? Anyways, I bought 4 of the 2013 Mint Sets. There last four they had in stock with 3 still sealed brown boxes and one open for display.

 

The best of all four sets was....the opened one... lol

 

Going thru the coins in the sets something caught my eye and I relooked and sure enough there is a few impressions on the Reverse right below the steps. The photo didn't show it all but you get the idea. Kinda looks like part of the nose or cheek from the Obverse. It's not enough in my opinion to get graded for Mint Error but does have a great shot at MS67.

 

So if you enjoy Mint errors, keep your eye on the nickels!

 

Thanks

If there are elements of the obverse showing through to the reverse, then it is not a strike-thru but a die clash, caused when the dies hit together with no planchet in between. Interesting coin!
