Best Answer

To clear things up, coins are minted rather than "printed". Printing involves paper and ink, or 3-D printers, etc.

What you have is almost certainly a trick coin made by cutting a genuine cent and nickel in half edgewise, swapping and then joining one side from each. It's the same kind of novelty item as those famous two-headed or two-tailed magicians' coins. They sell for a few bucks in novelty shops but aren't valid numismatic collectibles.
