A nickel and a 20 cent piece will make 25 cents. (The 20 cent piece is a rare coin struck by the US mint in only a few years in the late 19th century.)
Quarter, half-dollar, and nickel
one of the coin is a nickel and one is a half dollar coin
it's possible only if there are 20 cent coins only for that 7 dollars 1 dollar = 100 cents, 100 cents = 5 of 20 cent coins since you need 5 of 20 cent coins for a dollar, you do 7 times of it. 7 X 5 = 35. Therefore, you need 35 of 20 cent coins for 7 dollars. (or there are 35 of 20 cent coins in 7 dollars)
You can get 71 cents with a 50 cent coin, a 10 cent coin, two 5 cent coins and one 1 cent coin.

The puzzle actually reads "What two coins equal 30 cents but one of them is not a nickel?"The answer of course is a quarter and a nickel. The quarter is the coin that's not a nickel!
1866 was the first year for shield nickel's, the only US coins dated 1804 are a Half Cent,Large Cent,Quarter,Dime and a Dollar.
A nickel and a 20 cent piece will make 25 cents. (The 20 cent piece is a rare coin struck by the US mint in only a few years in the late 19th century.)
The one is a quarter and the other one is a nickel
Assuming American coinage, the two coins would be a 25 cent coin and a 5 cent coin. Assuming non-American coins, one is not a 10 cent coin, but the other one is. The other coin being a 20 cent coin.
In popular usage, a nickel IS a coin even though its name is technically "5 cent piece". The name dates back to the mid-1800s when nickel was first used in making US coins. At that time the Mint issued 3-cent and 5-cent coins made of silver. When it became practical to use nickel metal in coins, the Mint also struck the same denominations in an alloy of copper and nickel. The two different compositions circulated together for a number of years; to distinguish them from their silver counterparts people called both nickel-based coins "nickels", adding the denomination: 3-cent nickels and 5-cent nickels. Eventually the Mint discontinued production of both three-cent coins and silver five-cent coins, leaving only so-called "5-cent nickels" in circulation. Because there was no longer any need to distinguish denominations, people dropped the "5-cent" modifier in ordinary conversation and the coins simply became "nickels".
You have a quarter and a nickel. Only ONE coin can't be a nickel, not both.
Yes. The Australian general circulation 5, 10, 20 and 50 cent coins are all made from a 75% copper and 25% nickel alloy. The Australian general circulation 1 and 2 Dollar coins are all made from a 92% copper, 6% aluminum and 2% nickel alloy.
Only 4 denominations of US coins were struck for 1931. The $20.00 gold Double Eagle. The Mercury dime, Buffalo nickel and the Lincoln cent
"Nickel" is the slang term for five-cent coins in the US and among English-speaking Canadians. Interestingly, only 25% of the metal in US nickels is actually nickel metal; the rest is copper. Only Canadian nickels were ever made of nearly-pure nickel. The name's origin dates back to the mid-19th century when the US introduced 3¢ and 5¢ coins made of cupronickel. The same denominations were already being minted in silver, and both compositions were used simultaneously for a number of years. People began to distinguish the coins with phrases like "three cents, silver," "five cents, nickel," and so on. The name "nickel" caught on for both of the new coins and people began to call them "three-cent nickels" and "five-cent nickels." By the late 19th century both types of 3¢ coins and silver 5¢ coins had been discontinued, leaving only cupronickel five-cent pieces. Because there was no longer a need to distinguish among them, the "five-cent" modifier gradually disappeared, leaving the name we know today.
The answer is a nickel and a 50 cent piece (half dollar). The question states that *one* of them is not a nickel, but the other coin may be a nickel. In fact, this is the only answer. One is a half dollar and the other is the nickel. This way, one is not the nickel, the other is the nickel.
