Half dollar and a nickel. (A bit of a waste given that half dollars are only minted for collectors now, as they were the last silver coin to be minted in large numbers, which meant everyone hoarded them, which means people stopped using them for day to day transactions, which meant that the quarter replaced it as the coin of choice.)
Could the original question be "You have two coins that equal fifty-five cents and one is not a nickel"? If so, the answer would be "one is a half-dollar (not a nickel) and the other one is a nickel".
Hmmmm. This is a trick question, huh. The two US coins that total fifty-five cents are a fifty-cent piece and a five-cent piece. The fifty-cent piece is the one that is not a nickel.
Two U.S. coins are worth a total of $0.30, and one of them is not a nickel. What are the coins? A nickel and a quarter: It merely says ONE of them is not a nickel. The other one can be.
One is a half dollar and the other is a nickel. You have two coins, ONE is not a nickel, but the other one is!

Two quarters,four dimes and two nickels equal a dollar.
The two coins are 10c and 25c. As stated in the question, one of them is not a quarter, if it's a leap year.
The correct question is: You have two coins that equal 30 cents, and one of them isn't a nickel. Answer: a quarter and a nickel
