Coins of my father's: nickels
Continuation from: https://steemit.com/coins/@kinglouisxxviii/coins-of-my-father-s-pennies
The set of nickels I have is almost complete up to 2008 but I have family in Canada working on locating the newer ones that I don't have to at least get the set current.
Canadian nickels, 1922-2008
1922-1943
The older 2 that are missing (1925 & 1926) are fairly pricey at $100 & $200 so it may be a while before I get those. The regular 1942 nickel is also missing.
1942-1943 tombac nickels
These two were made of a copper-zinc alloy during World War 2
1944-1965
The nickels from 1951-1954 were minted with a steel plating during the Korean War.
1966-1989
