    $5.26/lb. (USD) for nickel right now. 100 of the .999 Canadian nickels equals 1 lb. Also nickels thrown into a fountain don't deteriorate nearly as fast as pennies. Nickel is a known carcinogen, so wear gloves (especially if your reproductive years are not done).

    I am NOT referring to U.S. nickels. Even the old ones were only 25% nickel (the other 75% was copper).
