Found a two-headed quarter today

Unfortunately, it wasn't a mint error. So here's the story:
As is every Friday, today was cheap candy day at the newsstand. So, as usual, I bought a couple sacks with cash and got two quarters as change. Looking at my change (as always), I noticed that one of my quarters, a 1967, had an abnormally high rim. Thinking this might be a strange mint error, I flipped it over and found the reverse to be a normal looking 1983 quarter obverse. It seemed like someone had very masterfully gutted out the reverse of the '83 and soldered the rimless obverse half of the '67 inside.
Naturally, this made my day. Anyone else find a magician's token in change?

I posted a few weeks ago. In a roll of nickels I found a two headed nickel. A 1982-P and a 1960.
I've been unable to get them apart.
Cheers

Very skillfully done, as the seam is nearly undetectable. Still have it . . . somewhere.

Any help locating any of these OBW rolls would be gratefully appreciated!
