What you are seeing is die deterioration.
Very common on Nickels.

 

agree with above - die deterioration from a worn or overused die.

Very very very common - not an error, I'm sorry to say

 

This is a classic case of die deterioration doubling. It is *extremely* common on 1999 nickels. See more here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die-deterioration_doubling

Spender.

 

Face value only! ~ Chris

 

I have that one too the 1999 P, Five cents ,The repunchment mark is visible, in fact i have 4 coins with all doubled die With full steps and I know it is worth more than the face value and i tried to watch on YouTube to find out How much!

 

The 99 P if doubled is a form of worthless doubling. Especially if the MM is doubled. The RPM ended in 1989 when the mm was no longer hand punched into the working dies.

 

It's a spender or you can keep for education and reference. Minted from a worn die.

 

Do not watch youtube videos.. They are a fountain of misinformation!
Honest truth from me!

 

Good to know re: youtube
