Penny4Me Pillar of the Community United States 745 Posts	Posted 05/03/2012 11:21 pm I think our US Nickels will be using lower-cost metals in the production of 5c coins soon and be like the multi-ply plated steel coins in Canada. Also, once US has enough new lower-cost nickels out, they will start an alloy recovery program to melt old nickels. So I would save any new BU nickel rolls you find! Maybe 2012 will be the last year for real Nickel 5 cent coin? the 2012 dimes are not worth the metals used to make them Edited by Penny4Me 05/03/2012 11:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff

However, I am speculating elimination instead of a composition change.

Owassokie Pillar of the Community United States 622 Posts	Posted 05/07/2012 10:53 am Well, I sold the dime box on ebay. I've traded half the cents with half hunter for half a box of Philadelphia mint cents. I still have the nickel box sealed. The article and last few posts are giving me cause for pause on the nicks...not sure what I want to do. I guess for $100, I can just hold and see what happens. OO Report this Post to the Staff
