Worth more than what?
If you mean worth more than face value, then yes
as they are 35% silver.
Anything more than that would depend on condition
so photos would be required.

@austinnoval -

As JimmyD alluded, those coins are called " War Nickels" and have a bit of silver in them - that makes them worth more than face value. Here's a link with more info:

Please post some photos and we'll help you determine the grade and value.

The 43 and 44 a 35% silver, need more info on the 42 Is it a 42, a 42 P, or a 42 S? From your first statement I'm not sure.

They each are about $0.50 - $1.00


1942 might be clad if so, it's about face value, maybe 8 cents.



If it is Type 1, it is clad, if it is Type 2, it is silver
