Gigicoins New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 07/12/2020 12:22 am For the past few weeks I've been going through coins that we've been collecting and that have been passed down through generations in our family. So I really don't know what I'm looking at here, but I just found a 1999 P nickel that looks like it's completely made out of copper. But I can't find anything on the internet that says there such a thing as a 1999 copper nickel. Has anyone ever heard of this?#8311; Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 07/12/2020 03:20 am Yes, ...but I would venture to guess that it is environmentally damaged in some way because it should be a solid copper-nickel alloy (it can't peel apart like clad coins). Getting the weight of it might help, too. It should weigh 5 grams.

But photos would help confirm this! My Trade List: https://goccf.com/t/194596 My Wants List: https://goccf.com/t/191710 Report this Post to the Staff
