NGC 1984-P Jefferson nickel double-struck 70% off-center on dime planchet. The coin is struck on the much smaller clad planchet of a dime, and weighs 2.3 grams, and as a result, some of the outer design details are missing on the coin.

Nickels struck on dime planchets are generally a scarce error type, but are available. However, off-metal double-strikes on dime planchets are rare, and few are known this this. It is particularly desirable since the 2nd strike shows design on both sides, and also because the coin's date and mintmark areas are visible. Additionally, it is problem-free and attractive.

The error occurred when a dime planchet was fed into a press that was striking nickels, and was struck twice, with the 2nd strike 70% off-center.

MS64 with lustrous white surfaces. A beautiful coin!
