<p>[QUOTE="Harry Behemoth, post: 1316343, member: 22117"]Canadian proof nickels from proof sets (not specimen sets or proof-like sets) from 1996 to the present are sterling silver (92.5% pure). They weigh 5.35 g, so are heavier than circulation coins. I guess some of these could end up in circulation accidentally. If the coin is from 2000 or newer, a magnet can be used as an easy first check.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
