You may be able to sell it on eBay for under $5 (since these are readily available as novelty items for around $6). Because of the way the US Mint manufactures coins, it's almost impossible to have a real two-headed or two-tailed coin of any denomination. There are situations where you may see a mirror image on one side of a coin, eg a standard obverse or "heads" side on one side and a reversed incuse image on the opposite side, but it will not look like a two-headed coin. Certain coin designs may also have on the "tails" side a different person's head. I don't recall that ever happening with the US nickel, though I could be wrong. The other side will appear completely different, though, from the "heads" side.
A mule nickel is a valuable error coin worth several thousand dollars. These coins were created when a buffalo nickel die was paired with a Jefferson nickel die, resulting in a mule coin with features from both designs. The specific value can vary based on its condition and rarity.

It is not a genuine Mint issue or error coin. Please look at the many similar postings for information on how these novelty items are made. This is a privately made novelty item known as a Magician's Coin. It's made by altering 2 normal coins and gluing the pieces back together. These sell regularly on eBay for a couple dollars.
The similarities between north and the civil war are...... Both sides were American. Both sides spoke English. Both sides raised regional units. Both sides had the same weapons. Both sides had poor medical care. Both sides wanted to expand
Nickel and technetium are both transition metals with similar physical properties. They are both able to form multiple oxidation states and are commonly used in various industrial applications. Additionally, both elements are relatively rare in nature and are often obtained as byproducts of certain mining processes.
A 2005 nickel isn't old or rare enough to be worth anything above face value, so a roll is worth $2.
If it's not a Indian head nickel, what is it? What does the coin show on both sides of it. Post new question and include any inscriptions.
If it's made of nickel, it's worth face value. If it's the silver version, it's worth $1.70 (as of 24 June 2016). In case you're not sure which you have, the nickel version is magnetic.
Both phrases suggest a lack of value. "Two cents" implies a small or insignificant contribution, while a "plug nickel" is a worthless or counterfeit coin. So, in essence, they both convey that something may not be worth much or anything at all.
It's not worth much. What you have is a novelty item, not a mint error.
Nickel and Cobalt are both elements, which means they are pure. Therefore, the do not contain anything else, so Nickel does not have Cobalt in it.
In average condition, both coins are only worth their face value.
This will be worth a minimum of 800 dollars or more. This is a rare coin and is really only worth what a dealer will pay for it or a private person on auction sites.
If it is a Mint error it may be worth a few dollars, take it to a coin dealer to see if it has any value.MoreIt's called a Jefferson nickel rather than a Monticello nickel. If by "double struck" you mean that Monticello is on both sides (which would account for the lack of a date) what you have is a novelty item called a magician's coin. There's more information at the question "What is a double headed nickel worth?"
One is a quarter. One is a nickel. This way, one (the quarter) is not a nickel. You never said that both of them weren't nickels.
If you found it in change, it's worth 5 cents on both sides of the border.
