The cupro-nickel version entered circulation in 2010 and had a mintage of 6,175,000. Although not particularly rare, as can still be found in your change even today, prices of these coins do go for more than face value.

Recent sales show that a 100% return shoukd you be lucky enough to find one jn your change. So keep an eye out for them! Not only can you double your money, but it also reminds you of the history and sacrifice suffered by millions.
