There is doubling on E Pluribus and on United States Of America and on Some of the memorial,i just started going through nickel rolls a couple weeks ago in hopes of finding a strong die clash,i have good clashes of pennies, dimes,and quarters but none for the nickels.

So on nickels machine damage has separation lines because I have been looking at pennies for over 25 years and have never seen it on pennies

That is also showing machine damage. Note, that device is not thicker, but thinner. Compare it with the first 'T' on STATE and you will see that is true.
Note on every 'T' on the UNITED images I posted the upper bar is affected upward in varying degrees according to the spread of the coin.

I went to the site Brians varieties site that has a bunch of different years of double die nickels and there is a lot of ones that don't look anything like your examples and I even found a couple that showed the doubling line running half way down,i am not saying this isn't from a worn die but why the separation line? Why the notching on the letters? Not something that I have seen on a worn die before.

I know my pictures are not the best but after I upload them to the optimizer then down load them back to my phone then upload them to the site they break down and get fuzzy so nothing I can do about the pictures,someone told me I wasn't holding the phone still so I made something to hold the phone and that didn't help.

On the MD example I posted above: Note the bottom of the 'N'? It looks like there is notching there? But will all the rest of the MD on the other devices, it is all MD. Note on all the same left foot of the 'N' in the other images. All are taller except one, that is not part of the area hub doubled happened. Hub doubling rarely affects just one device. (I've found a couple that were that way, but they are very minor)

Your picture of md shows the doubling as flat and the doubling lines on my picture is round,i am not used to looking at nickels.I found a homestead quarter,it is one of the double dies that the doubling is in the window it is a small line but if it wasn't listed as a double die how many would think MD.
