Fxenterprise1 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 03/01/2026 5:16 pm Hello everyone. I am new to the site and relatively new to coin hunting and collecting. I started down this rabbit hole about 6 months ago. I am enjoying it immensely. I came across this nickel while hunting rolls and at first thought it was a double die date, but up on closer inspection noticed it on all the letters obverse and reverse. I also noticed what looks like doubling around Jefferson's head and the Monticello. I have never seen examples of this. Is it worth anything? grading? recognized error?

Not worth grading as it's only worth 5 cents. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 03/01/2026 5:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff
