As of September 2021, the metal value in a nickel (which is composed of 75% copper and 25% nickel) is less than its face value. The cost of the metals used in a nickel is lower than 5 cents due to fluctuations in metal prices.
No, nickel silver and sterling silver are not the same value. Sterling silver is a precious metal composed of 92.5% silver, while nickel silver is an alloy of nickel, copper, and zinc that does not contain any silver. Sterling silver is typically more valuable than nickel silver.
All US nickels except special "war nickels" made during 1942-45 are struck in the same alloy of 25% nickel and 75% copper.
If it is a US nickel, it is 25% nickel, 75% copper. If it is a Canadian nickel I believe it is 100% nickel.
Not a whole lot. Nickel silver contains no silver but only contains base metals, so if you are scrapping a lot of it (several pounds) it may contain scrap value, though it would cost quite a bit to have it refined.
