<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Vess1, post: 636682, member: 13650&quot;]Man, I don&#039;t know.&nbsp; Would it even work?&nbsp; I would think the penny would be soft enough to where it would deform before it would put an impression that deep into a nickel.&nbsp; And you&#039;d only get one chance to do it because you could never line it up perfectly again.&nbsp;&nbsp; Maybe a machine at a factory could press it if somebody was ****in around?&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; It&#039;s interesting that you can see Liberty and a penny date stamped into the obverse of it as well.&nbsp; The rim of a penny sticks out past the date to protect it so I&#039;m not sure how you would accomplish this even with a machine.&nbsp; Unless somebody took some time and made their own die or punch.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Are the penny details on the nickel incuse as in stamped into the surface or are they raised above the surface like on a penny?&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp; Edit:&nbsp; Ok, from the pics it does look like it&#039;s punched into it.&nbsp; A normal Lincoln die should have raised the metal.&nbsp; &nbsp; Typically a mule coin will come from say a nickel obverse clashing from a cent reverse on accident.&nbsp;&nbsp; It doesnt&#039; make any sense why both sides would be affected so I&#039;ve come to the conclusion that this is probably a doctored coin that somebody made to try to scam somebody or maybe just for the fun of it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
