Did Canada make a copper nickel 5 cents in 2003?
Yes. From 2000 to 2006 the majority of Canadian nickels were struck in plated steel but some were also made from an alloy of 75% copper and 25% nickel. The steel coins will stick to a magnet but the cupronickel ones won't.
What are british coins made out of?
The 'copper' coins are in fact copper-clad steel nowadays, although older ones are bronze. From 2011 5p and 10p coins are in nickel-clad steel, although earlier ones are cupronickel. 20p and 50p coins are minted in two slightly different copper-nickel alloys. Pound coins are in nickel-brass, while two pound coins are in nickel-brass with a cupronickel centre. See the link below for more information
Buffalo Nickel 1937 Value?
In my opinion, this nickel could be worth thousands of dollars or a couple of dollars. The 1937 3-legged Buffalo nickel with a D located under the five cents symbol could be worth $400-$1,000. Perfectly Uncirculated ones could be worth $20,000. These coins are quiet rare and are not produced anymore, meaning they are very rare, these coins are the rarest of all Buffalo coins ever created. The 1937 Buffalo is the only coin with 3 legs, making them rare. If you have one of these coins take them to a pawn shop and figure out how much yours is worth. Have a great day!!!!

Many people erroneously think the coin is spelled "nickle" but that's actually the name of a small songbird! (I am not making this up - you can check a good dictionary)

Depends, Some countries use steel coins with copper or nickel plating making them ferrous (New Zealand 10,20,50 cent coins for example). Most countries use non ferrous alloys in coins.

All coins, even gold and silver, will tarnish, but rust is iron oxide, so only coins with iron in them will rust. The only ones I can think of are the steel 1943 US cents and some European Coins from the WW2 era.
