"Next year we could have an 8 cent nickel. Think what that would mean. You could go to a newsstand, buy a 3 cent newspaper, and get the same nickel back again. One nickel carefully used could last a family a lifetime." - Capt. Jeffrey T. Spaulding
The orientations are a little off here but it's good enough to compare the respective thicknesses. This is how one really appreciates these de minimus doubled dies, by seeing them as relative to the good ones. The top one of course is the good one, i.e., minted as intended...

Check Wexlers site. There are a couple that might match yours. Definitely a DDR.
Need closer pics
