| I got a nice 1938-P Jefferson nickel in change from the pop machine at work. I did cheat a little, kept putting in a nickel and hitting the coin return to get a different one back. I found a 1939-D last year from the same machine. |

| My wife and my kid got breakfast at McDonald's yesterday. My 13 year old looked at the change and said, "That's a special nickel, mom! It's a war nickel!" A 1943 "P". He did not recall why it was special. I told him it had silver in it and that he found a $1.00 or so coin. He was proud! So was I! |
