Question
Is this nickel a misprint or a fraud. Its missing "trust" on the face side, and on the tails side it appears to be another face of Jefferson. It doesnt look like it stamped through, cause the face on the tail side appears off center from the face side.  

Answer
I am not an expert on these errors.  You may want to show it to a dealer at a local shop or a coin show.  Or try doing to www.ebay.com and describing what you have in a search to see if you can see something like it or www.google.com.  In my experience (limited) most of these are done after minting by little boys experimenting on them to see what they can do and then spending them.  But without an expert looking at it, you never know, Jim Lawniczak
