Question
What is a plug nickel, and why isn’t it worth much?
Answer
The saying “It’s not worth a plug nickel” probably comes from the once-common practice of extracting some metal from a coin to be used for other purposes. Coins tampered with in this manner were no longer legal tender and therefore became worthless.
