Check the Canadian dime with a magnet to see if it's silver. If its magnetic, it's not silver.
If you've already done this,
Super congratulations!

Question besides the obvious buffs v nic and war nic. Why is everyone saving the other pre 60 nics I throw a lot of them back weekly should I not be.

yupp thanks again I knew that!

I have had my hopes up I had about 10 1968 Canadians I thougt were silver until TNet members told me to magnet check. Only a few passed. Glad you got a keeper!
Keep it up,
Wicka

Some people keep them because they think they will rise in price, and it's (rumored) that they can be sold on the Bay for a small profit.
This is just my opinion. I'm sure some hve sold for profit, I haven't. I do though have a sandwich bag full, and I also have STOPPED taking pre 60s out of circulation.
I hope this helps.

Thanks the only pre 60 I have ever kept was the 41s error and a 39s that was in good shape. Found a 45s and 43d that were in good shape yesterday. 3 silvers and 2 Canadians

There are some low mintage nickels pre 60 that are worth $.50-$15. I went through all of the nickels and found 4 low mintage nickels and in total theyre worth a couple bucks. Its like finding silver except its a numistic value.
