Item Description

A 1981-P nickel with the "CE" missing in "Monticello" is a coin error known as a "struck through grease" error. This type of error occurs when grease or debris fills the details of the die used to strike the coin, resulting in certain parts of the design not being fully struck or missing altogether.

Characteristics of the Error:
Missing Details: In your case, the letters "CE" in "Monticello" on the reverse of the nickel are not fully visible or completely missing due to the filled die issue.

Appearance: The affected area where "Monticello" is inscribed will appear smooth or indistinct where the grease or debris prevented the proper impression of the lettering.

Collectibility and Value:
Error Collectors: Numismatists who specialize in error coins often find struck through grease errors intriguing due to their distinct appearance and the story behind their production.

Demand: Depending on the severity and visibility of the error, such coins can be sought after by collectors interested in varieties and errors in coinage.

Value: The value of error coins varies widely based on factors such as rarity, condition, and demand. Minor errors like this one may fetch a premium from collectors who appreciate such anomalies.

Rarity and Condition:
Popularity: Error coins are popular among collectors for their uniqueness and the challenge of finding them.

Grading: Like all coins, the value of an error coin can be enhanced by its condition. Well-preserved examples tend to command higher prices.

Conclusion:
A 1981-P nickel with the "CE" missing in "Monticello" represents an interesting error in coinage that adds character and uniqueness to any collection. Whether for its numismatic value or as a conversation piece, error coins like this can enrich a collection and offer a glimpse into the intricacies of minting processes. If you have one, it could be a standout piece in your collection or a valuable addition for error coin enthusiasts.
