US Bill to Change Nickel Composition
A new US bill would let Treasury test a cheaper metal mix for the nickel, which costs nearly 13 cents to make.
Original post
After the penny, Congress is coming for the nickel.
A new bill would let the Treasury test a cheaper metal mix for the 5-cent coin.
The reason: it costs nearly 13 cents to make one.
That's more than 2.5x what it's worth.
The U.S. Mint stopped making pennies last November for the same reason.
