Yes, this is a privately made novelty item available in most magic shops or on ebay.com for a couple dollars. It's made by altering two normal coins and gluing the pieces back together. If you use a strong magnifier, you can probably find a seam just inside the raised rim on one side of the coin or the other. Please note that this question has been asked many times about many dates and denominations. Probably 99.9999% of all such coins are novelties created as described in the previous answer.

What is a 2 headed 1993 1995 nickel with p?

A 1993/1995 "two-headed" nickel is not a genuine coin issued by the U.S. Mint. These are novelty items created by altering genuine coins. The "P" mint mark would suggest it was minted in Philadelphia, but again, this combination is not authentic and holds no numismatic value.

A 1877 penny with a buffalo on the back and the word nickel is likely a novelty or altered coin. It is not a genuine U.S. coin as buffalo nickels were not minted until 1913. Its value would be minimal and mostly for novelty or educational purposes.


Was there ever a misprint of a coin with a penny on one side and a nickel on the other?

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.
