clad, etc.
Yesterday I went to another local park and found a good amount of clad for the kids piggy banks. Along the edge where I usually detect bolts in the railroad ties bordering the play area I got a solid nickel tone and pulled out a 1951 nickel. It had a slight green look to it but wasn't as dirty as the current clad I've dug up. I'm guessing this doesn't contain silver as it's not a wartime nickel? Can anyone confirm this? Thanks!

Nope
No Silver In A 1951 Nickel.only 1942-1945 And That Is Confirmed By A Large Mintmark Over The Dome Of Monticello For Those 3 Years.ALL OTHER YEARS HAVE THE MINTMARK ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE BUILDING.
