You're not wrong necessarily, but there are factors other than pure economics of cost vs. value of production. Too many people from copper and...
Ahhhhh, so many youngins here.... "Reality check" - example: in Mass. in Boston you need a token to get on the subway. It costs marginally...
I recall when they hit circulation I was gettinbg them all the time, then they disappeared. I did manage to keep one in CU condition. Glad I did....
Make sure to keep us posted - this would be a great error if real. Very dramatic.
To be honest, I had stopped reading the other thread. It wasn't anything against you by any means. It just got to the point where I was starting...
The obverse looks good,so I don't thinbk it is stamped post-mint. Could be engraved, but you can see that better than us. I would be...

I think vending machine oeprators and banks might oppose copying the Canadian nickel. Our 5 cent coins are the same dimension - if they are of...
???? We had a dollar coin colored like the others - the SBA - it was a failure and is also killing the Sacky because banks still ship them mixed...
2 war nickels in $10 worth of rolls from the bank - both 1945P well circulated. Got a late 1950s nickel also, but all others post 1960.
