Is your 1951 nickel high relief, or low?
Could be an even better score for free.

It's a sign of bad economic times when people dig deep into their change jars.

1951 beaver nickel in high relief has the last "A" in the word "GRATIA" pointing to a tentacle.
Low relief points between two tentacles.

I can take a photo of the difference if needed.
High relief is the rare one, vg=$450.00 trends.

The composition changed from nickel to plated steel 1951-1954.
The high relief did not strike well so a lower relief die was made.
Some 1951 beaver nickels were struck using the old high relief die.
The 1751-1951 commemorative nickel are all high relief portrait.

The 1937 small cent is my favourite of the bunch. They are quite hard to find in circulation.

Low relief by the pic, still not your every day free nickel.
