wow nice find pennyman i say its double

 

Pennyman, it looks like die deterioration doubling. There's no premium for that type of doubling.

 

Pennyman...I believe the doubling on your nickel is strike doubling, not from a doubled die. There are no split sherifs, the doubling is flat and shelf-like. You can notice it best on the S of TRUST on the obverse, and the U of UNITED on the reverse.

Hi,
It is die deterioration doubling.

Have Fun,

I understand there can be more then 1 doubling on a coin, to me it looks different in different places on the coin.:smile

 

Hi,
The ripply look of some of the areas of the fields of the coin along with the flattened outlined "doubling" that is visible around the lettering is classic die deterioration doubling. Although the doubling can look like different forms of doubling, it is all , in this case caused by the same thing. That is an extremely worn out die being used to strike the coin. It is in many ways confusing, but very easy to determine when you look at the coin.

Have Fun,
Bill

 

It does look like there are different kinds of doubling on this nickel, strike doubling and doubling from die fatigue. I think you should be able to see that this nickel came from deteriorating dies that were loose during the strike.

I found this 1960 Jefferson. In great condition. It appears to have Jefferson doubled and the dome and house doubled on the reverse. Have a look

 

Flat, shelf like.
Strike doubling.
No value

 

They can always go to Reno for a quickie divorce.
