PCGS 1998-P Jefferson nickel struck on a clad dime planchet. The coin is the weight and metal of a clad Roosevelt dime, but is struck with nickel dies. Although the PCGS holder says "1998", we aren't 100% sure, and it could be a different date as well.

The off-metal occurred when a dime planchet was fed into a press that was striking Jefferson nickels, and when the dime planchet was struck by the nickel dies, the result was an off-metal nickel on dime. A generally scarce error type.
