<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Helltech, post: 1479767, member: 22925&quot;]Hey guys, I just started collecting old silver coinage, I&#039;ve research a lot and personally have only been interested in 90 percent coins. Thus, those are what I’ve researched mostly. With that said, I knew that the 42-45 Nickel, the &quot;War Nickel&quot;, was 35 percent silver and saw a large lot of them on sale. It wasn&#039;t until after I made my purchase and spent a lot of money, that I learned that only some of the 1942 Nickels were 35 percent silver. The man I purchased them from was advertising them as &quot;Silver War Nickels&quot;. </p><p>So I have a few questions. </p><p><br /></p><p>First, is the non-silver 1942 coin still even considered a War Nickel? If not I might be able to get my money back due to false advertising, if I could see a link to something talking about this it would be great.</p><p><br /></p><p>Second, how can I tell the difference between a 42 silver and a 42 with nickel and cooper? I assume it has to do with a scale, so what are the correct weights?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
