OMG There will be a run on the banks tomorrow to buy every roll of nickels in the vault.
Yeah, dammit. If this goes viral it will be sooner than expected. I was hoping to have a few more months of quiet accumulation.
Look for:
1) A "new improved" nickel made of something worth around a penny (I've seen foreign coins made out of aluminum(!!!))
2) The government decrying "hoarding" - as they busily melt down the nickels they have. (They did this during the silver coin "shortage" when the clads replaced the "real stuff".
