Well just about,thier worth 97/100 of a cent almost a whole cent.The clad nickel is doing even better it's now worth 5.9 cents per nickel.Can we say"It's time to start hoarding coinage" yet? I guess i'll take all my quarters and dimes and halves and sacs down and convert them to nickels and cents! Ha-Ha!

the United States Mint does not repurchase any issue coins. It will redeem mutilated coins for their scrap metal value and will replace uncurrent coins with new coins of the same denomination. Numismatic items (coins) may be resold in the secondary market. You may wish to contact a local coin dealer if you are interested in selling your coins.

Coins that are chipped, fused, and not machine-countable are considered mutilated. The Mint redeems mutilated coins at the value of their metal content.

Mutilated coins are only redeemable through the United States Mint at:
United States Mint
P.O. Box 400
Philadelphia, PA 19105
(215) 408-0203

I Guess you have to Mutilate & Fuse them all together to actually Make Money off them
