One Pound Nickel

I very nice addition to my collection. Very nice looking piece. The weight is accurate, not that I cared. I weighed it for the review. I'm very happy!

Nice look with bar type

This is nickle bullion no matter what you thought you were buying. This is bullion and bullion is not perfect in every way like say a silver dollar. A silver dollar at the 1troy ounce .999 fine is from the mint and its not intended to be used as bullion.But the price is a bit of a stretch. Even at todays price. around $18/pound

***UPDATE BELOW***I guess this is all part of the free shipping perk but I will say that I would pay extra for extra care in shipping certain items. Not a big deal though. This is not going to be a showpiece, it's going into a box and then into a gun safe for storage. Perhaps Amazon could ship these semi-precious metal bars in boxes instead of envelopes? Just a thought. I do love it though, it is absolutely gorgeous (despite the small nick)!***UPDATE***Well, after reading that nickel is only worth about $10 per pound, I have decided to send this back. I didn't want to but I could really use the money for other stuff and that's exactly what I did! Perhaps in the future the premium on nickel won't be so high. Amazon is still, and will most likely always be, the best!!!

I ordered this piece to go with my collection from this company, this was by far the worst quality I've ever seen ! Some people have complained about nicks or dents, but what I got was so much worse. The edges look to be cut with a bandsaw and not sanded much less polished. The top edge is so jagged it pulls cotton from my shirt if I rub it along there, it's almost dangerous how rough the edge is ! And the face had its raised edges sanded off and somewhat rounded, but didn't bother to sand the sides. The surface has a haze that I'm not even going to attempt to clean ! People complained about it being 10x the metal price, but I was willing to accept that assuming the craftsmanship was worth the extra money. But this piece looks like it was picked out of the scrap bin for over a hundred dollars ! So disappointing that I'm considering returning my other five pieces I bought from them just because the company name is on this disaster of a machining nightmare !

1 pound is equal to ~14.5 ounces…1kg is equal to ~32 ounces. 1kg can be bought for $85 not including s&w or taxes.

Do not buy from here, currently 1 pound of nickel is approximately $7.41... just do your research.
