<p>[QUOTE="clorox, post: 1392735, member: 36209"]The San Francisco mint only made proofs and commemorative coins after 1974. So if a coin with an S mintmark is 1975 or later, it's a proof. I don't believe any proof nickels have silver; the only reason war nickels do is because the nickel was needed for the war so the mint added silver.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
