What Is a Silver Nickel Worth? (More Than You'd Expect!)


Silver nickels" might sound like an oxymoron if you didn’t know about the United States five-cent coins made from 35% silver during World War II.

The United States government was in a bind to save materials for the war effort. So it decided to pull the nickel content out of the five-cent coin to allocate the metal for war artillery.



Interesting pointers about silver coins indeed
