2000-P 5C Jefferson Nickel -- Struck with Two Obverse Dies -- MS65 PCGS. This Jefferson nickel has two obverses, rotated approximately 225 degrees from coin turn. Both sides are weakly struck, but exhibit a readable date and mintmark, and a partial outline of the Jefferson bust. Although unstruck areas retain the dimpled texture of the planchet surface, post-strike contact is confined to the rim near IN G on one side, and the rim near BERT on the other side. The surfaces are brilliant, luminous, and satiny. Double-headed mint errors are extremely rare, and this is the only one we have seen that is also a rotated dies adjustment strike.
