Nailed it!....and....I’m quite surprised that we don’t find more war nickels in everyday change, it’s the LEAST known silver coin still out there. Meaning....not many people are even aware that these are 35% silver and know how to tell what they are.

Nice catch! The coinstars are picking up again.
I love the rush when finding an old coin in the coinstar machines :)

Bravo, nice find! That's one silver coin that can still slip by, unnoticed, by the unaware and the disinterested. It looks much like any other nickel, at first glance, unless you see the larger mint mark.
