Indeed. It's certainly not the usual pairing we see, and I think it's quite special in its own right.

I have a two headed buffalo somewhere, or was it two tailed? I try to keep it so I don't get it mixed in with the rest of the Buffalo nickels. |

Well, if it isn't a genuine error, which it probably is not, I would still be glad to find one of those! Cool find error on not!  |

Yes when you look at edge closely you can see a line around outside wonder how these were made?

That's a fun find.
Usually you can see a little seam around one side or the other right up against the rim. I can't see it on your coin because the pics are so tiny.
It's probably worth a few dollars if you can find a buyer.

As others are saying ... this coin was created .. post mint striking.
It is a cool find ...
For me ... using a 1938 D Indian head with a 1938 D Jefferson would
have made it even more interesting.
