That is the best nickel find I have read on this forum. Those rolls sell for $30+ all day long on ebay. Keep them in the original wrappers at all cost. You can put wrapped rolls in the square tubes and some round tubes.  |

My goodness that is awesome! I'd sell those dab boys. Not too long ago, those were selling for $60 to $70 a roll. People have calmed down a bit on them, but you can still get $30 a roll. That's $1500 for the box. I'm so jealous of that find!

Okay, so exactly how many were minted in comparison to it's 2009-D Brethren? That's amazing, I must have been out of the loop on these because I didn't know they sold for so much.

 For that much of a profit, I'd sell them on ebay right away. And that is from someone that never sells coins. |

Using the latest Mint circulating coin production figures for 2009 Jefferson nickels, 39.36 million from Denver and 39.84 million from Philadelphia were struck, for a total of 79.20 million coins. In contrast, 640.6 million nickels were minted in 2008. That is an astonishing 87.6 percent reduction. The last time a U.S. nickel had such a low combined mintage was in 1951. |

True about how much of a decrease of mintage there was in 2009 compared to other years, but 39.84 million is still a lot of nickels. Especially since so many people hoarded these nickels due to low mintage figures. Just my opinion, but I would stay away from investing in these nickels. Personally I think the best "investment" for these 2009 nickels is just to sell them asap and make that extra cash.

Does that mean the 2009-D nickels are ones we should be looking to snag from rolls as well?

The US Mint website currently shows the 2009 circulating coin production figures for the 5 cent coin as 39.84 million "P" & 46.8 mil "D". Wow, what a find. I can't even find any in circulation here in the Florida panhandle.

I have yet to find a 2009 P and we live in the middle of PA. You would have thought we would have before finding a D.

Wow, that's amazing! In all the nickel rolls I've gone through, I've found only one 2009 nickel and that was a D. I live in Pennsylvania and you'd think a 2009P would show up now and then!
Great find and good luck with them!

Congrats on the awesome find!
Back in the days of RPMs and other various Doubled Dies, OBW rolls would carry more value. Now there are no more RPMs, since the MM is put on the die and there really aren't Doubled Dies, since the single press method, I don't understand why they would sell for more? They really shouldn't.
Maybe some people feel that they are better handled and might not have finger prints on them?
I think most people would pay more money for them in their OBW roll, but it can tarnish the coins. I'm not sure if this new paper is any better than the old stuff from 20+ years ago. If you keep them, don't keep them in the cardboard box, since that will most likely tarnish the end coins. Put them in a plastic box. Not sure if there is any PVC in those plastic boxes you buy at the store or not, but still much safer than the cardboard.
