After doing a bit of research on a coin I purchase I just found out that NGC has certified
The coin as silver when In fact it's cuppernickel.

Wondering if that would be worth more or less.
I'm totally keeping them because cause I know that NGC hardly makes mistakes.
Anyway. Just thought I would ask the experts.
Thank you

If you would at least tickle us with a date. Only one I can think of that could be confused is the early'42's, all others are "silver-less". Now what the OP may have is a substituted coin in a graded slab, why that would be just makes no cents tho...

Could be a 3-cent piece. The difference between silver and nickel would be obvious on sight but fairly easy to get confused when you're moving as many pieces as the TPGs do.

Edit: Or any post=1992 proof dime/quarter/half. Those, you can tell from the edge. Just from the face, not so easy to distinguish.
