This is not mine, but a friend owns it and let me shoot pics to share it here.
I'm not into nickels all that much, but I like this one a lot!

Five Cents looks more doubled to me than Monticello. But it's a cool variety. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice!!
That's a phenomenal grade for this desirable variety. It was reported very shortly after it's minting.
nice!
and an amazing grade

That is a nice looking coin with easy to see doubling. That's how I like them to look if I'm buy a DD.

Very nice and clear doubling... No microscope necessary there.... Cheers, RickO
Awesome example. It's interesting how on a coin with such pronounced doubling the price is so much less then the 1942 D/D where you need a 10x loupe to see it.
Nice especially a 66
That is one top notch example. Very bold details.

Thanks everybody!

I found one of these in bank rolls around 1990 or so. Couldn't believe my eyes. Too bad mine is only a VG.... slightly worse than the OP's!
That's a sweet find!

I found a low-end MS (62 or 63) around 25 years ago at a local shop. I wish I still had it.
Cool variety. Nice coin.
