Has anyone here seen or heard of a 2010 nickel with the monticello double stamped? I BELIEVE I found one roll searching awhile back and have not found info on the error yet. I cant post the pic now because I'm on a older moblie and its functions are limited.. I'll try to add a pic later.
Any info on this will be greatly appreciated

to the forum! Without a picture it will be almost impossible to give you a quality assessment of the coin. I can say that the word "Monticello" on Nickels are notorious for Machine Doubling and severe Die Deterioration. |

Here are some pics. I hope with this someone can tell me what I have here. Thanks The First pic is of the details of a normal 2010 Nickel.  The Next is the start or several pics of my questionable coin.     Thanks for looking hope to here some opinions and learn about this coin soon. |

It's apparently a kind of Die Deterioration. I have the mate to that nickel. It's a bit weird though, because I've found a coin identical to that, and many sharp 2010 nickels, but nothing in-between. |

VLDS (Very Late Die State). The die is continued to be used even thought it is very worn.

Thanks for the info. Any known value of this type of error?

No extra value, but but Die Deterioration manifesting this particular way is a bit unusual, so I hang on to the ones I've found. |

Aye that's one mushy late strike. I also hang on to extreme examples simply out of curiosity. :-)
Outside of the 1980s, strikes like that don't tend to show up very often (especially so in more recent years).
