Le nickel devenant rare durant la guerre, la MRC a frappé les pièces de cinq cents en tombac à compter de l'été de 1942 et en 1943, et en acier en 1944 et 1945. En 1951, les pièces commémoratives de cinq cents ont été frappées en nickel mais celles avec le castor comme motif de revers l'ont été sur des flans en acier.
