This is a bit of WWII coin history. A great addition to one's collection.

Type 2 WWII nickels are 35% silver. In 1942, the war effort required large amounts of nickel. To help with this effort, the mint removed nickel from Jefferson Five Cents and replaced it with silver. Beginning in 1942, the composition of the "Nickel" went from 75% copper and 25% nickel to 56% copper, 35 % silver and 9% manganese.
