None. Except for "war nickels" minted from mid-1942 to 1945, nickels have always been made of 75% copper and 25% nickel. War nickels had a small amount of silver in them because nickel was needed for the war effort.
1 Dollar "Peace Dollar" 1921-1935 Commemorative: End of World War I Silver (.900) - 26.73 g - ø 38.1 mm so 90% is silver of the 26.73gm total weight
About 40 billion ounces, or 1.37 million short tons
According to the World Silver Survey, approximately 27,000 metric tons of silver are mined each year. As for gold, around 3,300 metric tons are mined annually. The amount of silver used each year varies, but it typically falls within a similar range as the amount that is mined. For gold, the majority is used for jewelry and investment purposes, with a smaller amount used in industries like electronics and dentistry.
671 million troy ounces(approximately).
161,000 tons
No US one cent coin was EVER struck in silver. It may have been plated or look like silver, but it's not silver. It's just a penny.
73.4 Million tons
No US nickels have ever been pure silver, the "war nickels" of 1942-1945 are 35% silver and are the only nickels to have any silver. Post new question.
It's hard to believe, but if all the gold ever mined was weighed, it would amount to between 140,000 and 160,000 tons. That would be a cube of approximately 62 feet on a side. A cubic inch of gold weighs 11.06 oz.
Sorry, no Buffalo nickels were ever struck in silver.
Approx. 2 700 000 tonnes, up to 2011, in all the world.
I heard on NPR last year that the total amount of all the gold ever mined would fill two Olympic swimming pools. But I bet this answer will be much harder to find for diamonds. Diamonds are most likely not as rare as they are purported to be. They are used industrially on a much wider scale than industrial uses of gold.
What ever kind they can get. Gold or silver. Maybe not so much on the silver. More of the gold...hmm...
