Question
hi, i have a misprint nickel i think. it has nothing on the sides,no words or pictures,so i dont know what year it might be. the only word on it is god with a slash. it is located in the corner. any idea what it might be worth,if anything? thanks amber
Amber,
Sounds like an off-center strike error, where the coin blank was improperly inserted into the press before it got struck. As described its value is about $5.00
If you send me magnified pictures of both sides of the coin, I can verify what you have.

Expertise
My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.
