Answer:

64 Nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

172 coins equal $14.00

It took time to figure this out, I just used a calculator to shimmy down the gap of possibilities, starting here;

100d = $10.00

72n = $3.60

I got closer here;

110d = $11.00

62n =$3.10

I subtracted 2 dimes and added 2 nickels from the previous to get the answer.

108d = $10.80

64n = $3.20

$10.80 + $3.20 = $14.00
