About Dan Moore Expertise My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library,
and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just
about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current
price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So,
with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value
any U.S. coin you have.
Experience I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.

Question I have a 2006 D Nickel w/ Jefferson Liberty facing forward, but the question refers to the Monticello House on the reverse. On my nickel it looks like there are 2 people facing each other on the flat to the right side of the building. Is this suppose to be there, as none of the rest of my nickels(1992, 2004) have this printing on them.
Answer Sandra,
What you are actually seeing are the initials FS for Frank Schlag, the coin's designer. The reverse design was slightly modified in 2006.
If you go to the images section of the mint's website, you can find an enlarged picture of this "Return To Monticello" nickel there :
