I have found several of those double-rim coins. I don't think they are uncommon enough to be valuable.
That is an awesome war nickel!!! I have found a couple nice ones, but nothing like that.
 

It's not a broadstrike, but an off center strike. Not enough to warrant a premium.

43-p is the reason you look at the dates and not just throw all the new looking nickels back in the pile.
 

If the 1985 nickel is centered on the reverse then it is a misaligned die. If it is also off center on the back then it is a very slight off center strike.

Misaligned die it is then. Thanks all!
 

Nice looking 43-P.. probably MS-62 to 63..at best.. some bag marks on Jefferson's cheek and hair. Must've come from someone's collection.
