Should War Nickels be considered "silver coins" for your detecting stats?

I've found two war nickels this year but I'm not sure if I should include them in my silver count for the year. I guess there's really no right or wrong answer, just seeing what others do/think.

Excellent! Thanks for all your input! The '45-P war nickel from yesterday brings my silver coin total for the year to 18!
