From mid-1942 through 1945, nickels used 35% silver to save nickel for the war. Large mintmarks sit above Monticello’s dome. They’re a favorite roll-hunt target and a history lesson in one coin. 📷 Wikimedia Commons · Wartime nickel (public domain / free license) — Historical education · Dent Historian · Not a price guide or appraisal.
