I did! I did! I did see a war nickel! When I dug it, a few days ago, I thought it looked healthy, like it had some silver in it. My first sight of the date looked like '45, but then I rubbed it dirty, and my field inspection determined it was 1970-something...in the pouch, and on I went. I was taking another look at my dirty clad today, and one nickel didn't quite look like the others. I cleaned it up with a toothbrush & baking soda. 1945 S. Nice. My official silver coin count fty is now revised to 18.
