What are you referring to? All coins have edges, but some like cents, nickels and Sac. dollars are smooth, while others like dimes and quarters have little grooves called reeding.
If your nickel has a reeded edge you'll need to take it to an expert to be examined in person to see whether it's a normal nickel that has been altered, or was somehow incorrectly struck, although the latter is very unlikely.

Why is the edge of a nickel smooth?
This tradition goes back hundreds of years. Coins made of precious metal have ridges or lettering on the edges so unscrupulous people cannot scrape a few cents worth of gold off the edge to sell and then spend the coin for its full value. Base metal such as nickel, copper, aluminum, and zinc have such a low value it would not be worth your time to 'shave' a nickel. Even though dimes, quarters, and half dollars are no longer made of silver the edge reeding has been retained. The Anthony and Sacagawea Dollars have smooth edges but the Presidential Dollars have lettered edges.
