The listing, 1943 P World War II Jefferson Nickel 35% Silver has ended.

It was an era when even our money went to war. The U.S. Mint faced a daunting task. Copper and nickel were in short supply and were desperately needed for munitions. The solution was to substitute various metals for the minting of pennies and nickels.
The silver nickel despite its color, actually has 3 times as much copper as nickel. Within the first year of the war, the "nickel" was actually minted with 35% silver. On the reverse side, the issuing mint's initial was struck over the Monticello dome. Because of the high silver content, these nickels were removed from circulation in 1970.
Here's your chance to own one of these rare and hard to find nickels.
