I think you wanted to say that you had 30 cents, in which case you would have a quarter and a nickel. However, the way you have phrased the questions, the coins could be anything.

You missed the actual catcher in the riddle. It's supposed to be:
I HAVE TWO COINS IN MY HAND THAT EQUAL 30 CENTS. ONE OF THEM IS NOT A NICKEL. WHAT COINS DO I HAVE?
The correct answer is
1 quarter = 25 cents
plus
1 nickel = 5 cents
The quarter is NOT a nickel! Better luck next time! Keep them coming! :)

Well, One is a nickel that's for sure.. There is not enough information to accurately guess the coins other than we know that you don't have two nickels.

A quarter and a nickel. The one that's not a nickel is a quarter.

One is not nickel, but the "other" is a nickel.
Oh, and you forgot to mention that it totals 30 cents.
