Or, if you don't know the thickness to which the metal was rolled, what is the typical thickness of a 3c Nickel? Thanks for the help!

Did that 3 look like a 5 for a minute, Howard?

I calculate it to be near 0.035 in. Any confirmation?

Such a seemingly simple question . . . .

Best I could finf from a non reliable source. 1.55 MM = .06102 in.

And now edited to add that was the silver.

Nah, but a 3 cent silver looked like a 3 cent nickel for a moment.
