Well here's another brilliant idea.

Maybe its a 5 cent coin minted by the USA for circulation in another country. Like Costa Rica or something.

Joe, that had crossed my mind too. I was thinking Philippines, but they were already independent by 1950.

I've just been through that list you linked to Joe and every coin in the date range is on Numista. :(

Doesn't Q13 confirm it's a US coin. For US soil.

Good thought. I've never seen a hobo nickel made on a Jefferson nickel, but I haven't seen a lot of things.

Agreed, Philly nickel with said dates. All on Numista.

I can think of one Philly-minted Jefferson nickel that isn't listed on Numista, but it may be a stretch.
