Very Nice! War nicks are always fun, but this take it to a whole new level!! :thumbsup:
Just wondering, how did you acquire those old bills? Does the bank really go through all the bills regularly? Or just a teller held them for you.

Re: I've got war nickels and I've got canadians, but

the last silver canadian nickel was called a five cent silver and was minted in 1920 I think. During World War Two they took nickel out of there nickels for the war effort and replaced it with something called TOMBAC which looks like yellow brass when its UNC. siegfried schlagrule
