Hey, silver is silver! All War Nickels are little nuggets of WWII history and deserving of our affection. The doubled die reverse is the big money 1945-P nickel, but there are also a ton of repunched mint marks for that year. The huge P makes many of them easier to see. I've auctioned a handful of War Nickels on ebay this year, and they went for $1.75-2.25. Which means they average $1 profit after ebay fees and shipping. A pretty good deal for a coin you can find in circulation for 5¢. =)

It's better than the 1945-P Silver Nickel that I have. (I have zero).

Thank you all! I feel like I've accomplished something worthy today!! LOL I didn't mean I bought it for $1, meant value wise. That's one I'm definitely gonna keep!

Surely that is a keeper. Yesterday I gave my great niece a war nick. She is 9 years old, and immediately noticed the difference. It was so cool. Hopefully a newmismatist is blooming. I also gave her 4 40% Kennedy's and she immediately noticed that they looked "different". This is an ongoing project, as I anticipate passing my accumulation on to her.
