This is a fun group of “wooded nickels”. The wooden nickel has a interesting history, here is a brief description from Wikipedia!

a wooden token designed to look like a five-cent coin, traditionally used as emergency money or promotional tokens by businesses during times of economic distress, like the Great Depression. The phrase "don't take any wooden nickels" is an idiom meaning "don't be fooled" or "don't get tricked" by something worthless.

Local businesses and different individuals have put these fun little pieces as advertising, or customer loyalty one said “come back for a drink on us!” Or they could be commemorating an anniversary or special event. These nickels date from the 1960’s to the 1980’s. They are mostly from Nebraska. please note you may not receive the nickels shown, I have several that I have put in groups of 10.
