I was thinking the same thing..

Unless of course it is the only known example of a 1961 Franklin Nickel to exist and then I would say keep it...


Give it to Grandpops...He was making you an offer you couldn't refuse

You would certainly please your grandpa if you gave it to him on a special occasion like his B-day or Christmas....make it a surprize and you will not believe how much he will appreciate such a thoughtful gesture! Relationships are much more valuable than any coin!
