The first coin is a 1960 which appears to have doubling on the reverse. It appears strongest on the top of the building and in the "o" and "L" of Monticello. Is this a double die or Machine Doubling?

The second coin is a 2005P with the ocean view reverse. It appears to have multiple die breaks, any opinions/ is this worth anything? Thanks

The 1960 nickel shows Die Deterioration Doubling. The 2005 nickel shows lots of die chips. Neither carries much of a premium
