{{/presale}} {{#promotion_on}}Silver War Nickels remain a favorite among silver investors and coin collectors because of their historic background and 35% silver composition. Produced by the United States Mint during World War II, these nickels were created using an alternative metal blend to conserve nickel for wartime manufacturing. BGASC is proud to offer $10 Face Value lots of authentic 35% Silver War Nickels.
Highlights:
Please keep in mind that these coins may be packaged in either bags or rolls depending on inventory availability when your order is prepared. Each lot contains approximately 11.25 troy ounces of pure silver overall. The nickels included in these products will vary in both date and condition, with some showing more wear than others. Our staff selects all coins based on available stock at the time of purchase.
Obverse
The obverse of the 35% Silver War Nickel showcases President Thomas Jefferson. His portrait has appeared on the Jefferson Nickel series for many decades and remains one of the most familiar designs found on American coinage.
Reverse
On the reverse, you will find the image of Monticello, Jeffersons historic Virginia home. Wartime nickels are distinguished by the oversized mint mark located above the building, a feature unique to these silver-content issues.
History
The United States Mint struck 35% Silver War Nickels between 1942 and 1945 as part of the countrys wartime effort during WWII. Since nickel metal was needed for military equipment and supplies, the Mint temporarily changed the composition of the Jefferson Nickel. These special wartime coins were produced using 35% silver, 56% copper, and 9% manganese. As a result, the coins often have a slightly different appearance from modern nickels. Another easy way to identify them is the large mint mark displayed above Monticello on the reverse side. Many buyers enjoy Silver War Nickels because they provide an affordable option for purchasing silver, while collectors appreciate the connection these coins have to an important period in American history.
