The "melt ban" was a law written by the Treasury. Congress has naught to do with it.
The Covid19 is being used as the next argument for a cashless and more reason to print more cash. I've even started gathering nickels again.

Kid took priority, then more kids got added. So, I don't really have the time to get a new hoard at this time. Maybe some day when my kids are old enough to 'help' me with the hobby.

1- Nickels are so close the melt value, and require no sorting to be worth stacking.
2-There may be silver nickels if and when I have time.
3- My source banks are still letting me buy them.
