<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 176354, member: 66&quot;]Partially right.&nbsp; Plated yes, but I don&#039;t think it has been counterstruck. It looks to me like the nickel was holed and a minature was inserted.&nbsp; (You know those novelty minature coins)&nbsp; Note the edges betwen the two are flush on the reverse but on the obverse the field of the nickel curves down to meet the insert.&nbsp; That is typical of a punched hole.&nbsp; If you ever see a piece of punched strip you will see that effect around the holes.&nbsp; Flat on one surface of the strip and curving down into the hole on the other.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
