∙ 8y agoIt is impossible, since no coin + half dollar = 5 cents besides a nickel. 1,5,10,25,50, $1 are the coin denominations of today. However, if you used a half dime, it could technically work out, as 50 half dollar + 5 half dime = 55 cents. A half dime is a coin worth 5 cents. A nickel today, is just a name for 5 cent coins. For example cent or penny is a name for a 1 cent piece as a dime is a name for a 10 cent piece etal. Todays nickel is made of copper and silver.

25 cents plus 5 cents = 30 cents. One of these coins is not a nickel.
One is a nickel and one is a dime. The one that is NOT A NICKEL is the dime!
a half dollar and a nickel
A half dollar and a nickel. One of them isn't a nickel, the other one is.
