May as well do the nickel, too.

Making a nickel costs more than double what it’s worth. As of last year,every nickel cost 10.4 cents to make.

Dimes and quarters are worth more than they cost, but the margins for both have shrunk significantly over the past two years. The cost to make a dime increased from 3.7 cents in 2020 to 5 cents in 2022 — a 34.9% increase. Meanwhile, the cost to make a quarter went from 8.6 cents to 11.1 cents — a 28.7% increase.

Life Magazine covered the story, and offered a history of silver certificates in the United States.
