How Many Nickels Were Minted In 2024. During the years 1942 to 1945, nickels were struck containing 35% silver. For the second consecutive month, the jefferson nickel and the roosevelt dime had no reported.

In september, the mint struck 486 million coins for circulation, all of which were cents and quarters, with no nickels or dimes produced for the third month running and the fifth time this. It’s because the 2024 nickel is actually very rare, with only 30 million minted.
