Did 100 rolls last night with the following results.
35 - Pre-60's 1 - 1926 Buffalo (needed to be nic-a-dated) 1 - 1986 Canadian nickel
Was able to upgrade several of my coins and filled one hole, the 1951S (7.8 million). Nine more holes to fill in my book. Was overall pleased but still missing quite some of those early war nickels. Was really hoping for a few of them.
Grabbed a total of 100 rolls from 4 different banks today. An assortment of customer wrapped, Brinks and Strings. Searched through 60 rolls and found 2 Buffalo (1937 & a failed nic a date attempt) & 3 war nickels! Quite a few pre 1960 but no key or hard to find dates.
Now about the other 40 rolls. All are solid rolls of Westward Journey nickels.
US Mint wrappers (2) 2005P Buffalo (3) 2005D Buffalo (3) 2006P Return to Monticello (3) 2006D Return to Monticello
My dilemma is what I should do with them. I'll probably save the Mint wrapped and a couple of rolls of the others. Is there much demand anymore for these things? Or should I open them and check for anything unusual and run them through the Coinstar?
A quick search on FeeBay shows there is a little demand for the Buffalos. I'll probably keep the mint rolls since somebody paid a premium for them at one time and a couple rolls of the others.
Todays 60 odd rolls gathered from 5 different banks produced far fewer goodies than I've been getting. Only 1 war nickel and around 20 pre 1959's with no hard to find dates.
Same thing happened to me a few weeks back; ended up with 60 or so rolls of various Mint wrapped Westward Journey nickels. I tried selling some of them on eBay with little luck. Opened the rest; nothing any good. To the coin counter they went!
When snow melts, where does all of the white go???
Took a break from nickels for about a week; was going to take off a couple weeks to concentrate on cents but those nickel rolls were calling out to me! Here is the first update of the second half, and a pretty good one, too!
40 rolls from 2 different banks yielded 12 pre 1960 with nothing worthy to mention. My bank that ordered some nickels for me hasn't gotten them in yet. I'm bummed because the Brinks rolls have been giving up Buffalos and War nickels.
