I'm glad you mentioned it as I've had this 1942 nickel that for decades has had me wondering. When I found it, I thought it was silver until I flipped it. Still, it looked silver rather than like the other period worn cupronickels. I posted a picture here when I first got back into collecting remarking this nickel has me looking at it over-and-over again; funny how it 'commands' my attention. However, I never did the 'ring' test until today. I'm pretty sure it's nickel now; just looked unusually gray like a War Nickel...until sandwiched in period War Nickels.

Maybe now it will release me!

There were both types that year. The war time and the normal cupro nickel. All three are from Philly. The ones with the "P" is the Silver ones.
