I have obtained this double denomination Canadian Coin. It is a 1968 Nickle on the one side and the back is a 1968 Penny. Like my name says I am not a collector and I am really just looking to place a value for the purpose of resale. Thanks   Edited by notacollector

It appears this coin has been sandwiched between two other coins hard enough to transfer the images, either by hammer or vice. This was not done at the mint. It's worth.....5 cents! |

http://images.pcgs.com/SecurePlus/2...63_Large.jpgHere is what your coin would look like if it was truly a double denomination 1 cent over 5 cent. This coin (and image) belongs to the site moderator SPP so I hope I don't get into hot water for posting it :) ...and welcome!

The one posted by robmck has to be a backdoor job right?

Hm kinda tempting to try ;). How exactly do you do this? Secure the coins in a vase then hammer it really hard once?
