These WWII Nickels Are Anything But!
When the United States entered World War II, nickel -- the metal, not the coin -- was in high demand. To support the war effort, the U.S. Mint removed all nickel from their five-cent coins for four years, starting in 1942. Instead, they would strike the coins from a combination of copper, silver and manganese.
This 11-coin set includes every mint mark and year from 1942–1945, giving you a full collection of nickels struck and circulated during WWII! War nickels are incredibly popular with collectors, so don’t miss out on this great opportunity. Each set comes housed in a presentation card and plastic sleeve.
