<p>[QUOTE="d.t.menace, post: 1538251, member: 18944"]It can't be a double denomination. For it to be one it would have to be a nickel that was then struck with quarter dies. Most of the nickel design would then be overstruck and you would see more of the quarter design. It's impossible for a nickel planchet to have been first struck in a quarter press and then struck as a nickel. It would expand the diameter to the point where it wouldn't fit a nickel collar. </p><p>My hunch, given the quality of the pics, is it's a clashed die.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
