In 1953, a newspaper delivery boy in Brooklyn, New York, made an odd discovery. One of his customers gave him a nickel that seemed lighter than the others.
When he dropped it, it popped open, exposing a small piece of microfilm. It was the bizarre beginning of the exposure and discovery of a spy ring in the United States that ultimately contributed to one of the most notable events in the entire Cold War.
Learn more about the Hollow Nickel Case and how a random discovery led to the discovery of a spy ring on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
