I found this 2003 nickel with a swaztica on it. Any ideas of why someone would do this or is it common to find these? Is it worth just 5 cents?

Thanks I hate to see a nickle wasted

Not wasted .

the nickel is still worth 5 cents.

Maybe a little more to a counter stamp collector.

or Swastika collector if there is such a person
 

There are several nazi, hitler etc collectors out there you could fetch a couple bucks for it on eBay
 

all things aside I would bury the thing. I wouldn't even want something that distasteful in circulation. ugh.

I wouldn't bury it, just find some punches and turn that Swastika into a square.
 

Thats interesting, neat find. Ebay it.

I agree with GarouLady - pitch it tmjones550!
 

Yall do know that in Eastern Asian culture, the swastika is a symbol of good luck & been in use for thousand of years.

:laughing7: yep & it's not like a Swastika can jump off the coin and incite or attack someone :tongue3:
 

Could it possibly be a whirling logs symbol?

It could if that is what you want it to be.
as I said a Swastika (or that design if you prefer) is just a design.

However My guess whoever put it there is suggesting some connection between

Nazis, Jefferson & Monticello. Not sure if the year is connected also
but I say just someones idea of a cool thing to do :dontknow:

and life will go on :thumbsup:
 

I was simply raising the possibility.

yea I'm aware of that . I just felt that was the way to phrase my response, in order to make the point,
if someone wants it to be Nazi's that is what it is, If someone wants it to be Boy Scouts,
that's what it is, & If someone wants it to be Eastern Asian or indian, well, then that is what it can be :laughing7:
