Seemingly a pretty common occurrence with War Nickels, but a nice find nonetheless.

Dorado Bedrock of the Community Canada 24885 Posts	Posted 10/15/2018 3:56 pm War Nickels 35% Silver War Nickels. ... Produced by the United States from mid-1942 to 1945, these " War Nickels" were made from 56% copper, 35% Silver, and 9% manganese. By saving the nickel metal, the government was able to use that metal for the production of military supplies during World War II. (Educational) Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 10/15/2018 4:02 pm Thank you to @GC and @dorado for the gentle reminder that the US didn't start striking War Nickels until well into WWII.
