RE: Nickels Made of Pure Nickel: Wartime Metal

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

But aren't all those coins with the queens face supposed to be turned in?
So they can issue new ones with whats his face on them?
What about when whats his face dies really soon and they need to remint again?

Nickel isn't as much needed as a war metal anymore.
But, in the future, silver will be considered a national treasure.

I don't think so, sort of like how pennies didn't have to be turned in after Lincoln was shot.

I don't think England or Canada are interested in issuing coinage with a monarch on them anymore, they want everyone digital and controlled. Can't shut down a bank account consisting of nickels in a jar, if they're not happy with your political actions. They have to ensure the nickles are not valuable and make sure you can't pay your bills using them!

silver will be considered a national treasure.

I believe it's already a national treasure, spread all over the place, decentralized and ready for trade - if the people would accept it. But no, we like our ATMs and paper cash and electronic bill pay services.
