    I haven't seen any listed anywhere, but it does appear to have the split serifs. Good luck.

    It appears that all 1950 proof nickels have this doubling, indicating a doubled master die. In other words, all working hubs and working dies that descended from the doubled master die would also have the same doubling.

    Thank you! Reason I asked was taking photos of 2 proof nickels and they have the same appearance.
