It actually depends on where you live.  Here in the glorious Dominion of
Canada (known to you Ahmurikans as "The Great White North"), nickels
are made of 100% pure Canadian-mined nickel, mostly mined in Sudbury
(you know the one:  the acid fumes from the smelters have devistated
the land around the town so badly that Apollo astronauts came here to
test the lunar rover, because the area so resembled the dead surface
of the moon).  

Of course, our silver dollars are nickel, too....
