<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ordinary Fool, post: 2765306, member: 85318&quot;]They are far better to hoard than a zinc penny and even a copper penny. Neither of them are bad to hoard since they contain industrial metals and logic dictates the world&#039;s mines won&#039;t produce infinite quantities, scale of economy mattering not.</p><p><br /></p><p>Cupronickels aren&#039;t bad things either and those who are holding masses of them, will win when the mundane metals market is inevitably corrected just as it was partially corrected about 15 years ago.</p><p><br /></p><p>If nothing else, they will become more collectible when our country ceases being the last to use nickel for coins. If any others currently still do, it&#039;s certainly not of any significant scale and keep in mind, nickel isn&#039;t dirt cheap like bismuth or zinc.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is used for many things, including the building of war machines which is why you are holding a war nickel devoid of nickel. It was in more demand than silver.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you think nickel is cheap or of no use, head down to your local farmers co-op and price a 99Ni welding rods comparing it to common 6011&#039;s or 7018&#039;s.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
