Well after hearing of the rather surprising silver turnout my fellow hunter BBcards was getting when he searched nickels, I simply HAD to search through some. I got $100 in nickels from the teller and then some lady came up next to me and cashed in some rolls of coins and there was a nickel roll in there that I took as well. In that lady's roll, I found a proof war nickel (35% silver)...I started to get stiff...in the rest I found 3 more war nickels; Sproing!. So I came out with four war nickels in total and really that pretty much parallels the value of the average dime finds within a batch of $500. So at first I was a nickel naysayer because I thought the war nickels would be incredibly scarce and you can't just rim check them, but it was actually a nice change of pace. They are good to get when you have sucked a bank dry for the week of other coinage and they are alot cheaper to get so you aren't tying up $500 or more dollars at a time.
