Since all 1975 nickels are made from a combination of copper & nickel, I would have to see a picture of your coin to see what you're talking about. You can send it to Working.Man@usa.net

Current US dimes are made of a "sandwich" composite consisting of a solid copper core clad in outer layers of an alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper, for an overall mix of roughly 92% copper and 8% nickel. Until 1964 US dimes, quarters, half dollars and dollars were struck in an alloy of 90% silver and 10% copper.
