    • These 35% Silver composition nickels were made from 1942 through 1945 as an emergency measure to alleviate the wartime shortage of nickel.

    Pre-1965 35% Silver coins, sometimes referred to as junk Silver or scrap Silver, are a great way to start your Silver investments. These Silver coins were pulled from circulation with the introduction of Copper/Nickel clad coins and the rising demand of Silver. The public saved them for their 35% Silver content as a rainy day fund they could fall back on.

    The U.S. Mint
    The U.S. Mint has been the producer of some of the most iconic coins in U.S. history. The Silver War Nickel series is another testament to the Mint’s craftsmanship, offering a timeless piece of American numismatic heritage.

War nickels

Was this review helpful? Yes/ No

Saw these on sale and picked them up. Turned out to be a solid purchase. Always thought the war nickels were cool. Being that they never originally were intended to be made of any silver! With such a limited run, they are valuable to me.

Silver with no premium - Can't beat it!

Was this review helpful? Yes/ No

Yes, silver nickels are heavy, but how often do you get basically spot priced silver from a reputable company like Apmex? They all come in half rolls of $1.00 face each and can be liquidated just about anywhere. Again, zero premium = spot. Buy the dips!


  • Pros

Super Low Premium Constitutional Silver

Was this review helpful? Yes/ No

War Nickels are a great way to add small-denomination silver to your stack. Premiums are low (currently zero), and it is the smallest-content silver coin from the U.S. Mint. If you ever think we'll be in a position to barter or make purchases using the silver content in Constitutional coinage, this gives additional flexibility. Plus, I enjoy the interesting history of these coins. I bought $20 face value (400 coins) from APMEX over the course of several months. Quality was as advertised (avg circ). A few slicks, and a few really nice ones. Only one was not a War Nickel. I notified customer service, and they immediately sent a replacement.

After reading some reviews I was worried, but all are war nickels from 1942-1945. 1 even looked like AU quality!
