It would be minted on a dime, not a nickel.
Would you show a cropped photo of both sides please.j

If this was on a dime planchet and it looks to be so because there is no cupping or mayor off center and very unusual to be on any other size planchet and depending on if it was given a grade I would think that it would be $200.00 to $300.00. If it was a double denomination coin it would or could be worth five times that! In other words it was a penny struck over a minted dime!
