Any ideas would be nice

Unfortunately I do not have any nickels with lamination errors for comparison. However I did
check my Lincolns with similar lamination errors I noticed that each of them has a raised edge
on one or both sides of the 'stripe'. Your nickel certainly appears to have the same error.
It looks as if the coin is cracked and the metal is about to peel away.

You know I am no expert on errors, so I would wait until someone who has professional
knowledge about such things to give you the thumbs up on this.

Hey, for what it is worth I think it is very nifty! Nice Find!

it does appear to be some sort of planchet problem.... id call it a lamination

Lamination, no question.

Much thanks for the opinions
