This is a pretty severe case of die deterioration doubling. Seems to be pretty prevalent on nickels.

I agree. I noticed it was on both sides of the letters, and that is a very good indicator of DDD.

Die deterioration doubling fools a number of beginning collectors on nickels because it can be so convincing.

Thank you all for the details. Not having collected any coins since the '50's, this is like starting all over.
