5-cent Canadian coin from 1965. The Canadian and American 5-cent coins are called "nickels," but most of the time they are only plated with Nickel metal, and most of the mass is other metals. However, this Canadian nickel coin from 1965 is made from mostly pure Nickel metal according to the Wikipedia article on Canadian nickel coins.

A single crystal of Nickel metal. It looks like a tree branch made of small bubbles joined together. A very cool sample of this somewhat common metal!
