coincollectingkid Valued Member United States 323 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 7:27 pm So I went through forty rolls yesterday, and found a proof and a silver, so I did pretty good. by the way that was the first time I've searched nickels. Now, today I tried 40 more and did what I think is AMAZING. heres what I found- here's the buffalo and heres the LIBERTY!! Report this Post to the Staff

Elimist Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 7:54 pm Wow, that is a lucky find! I think the average for a Liberty nickel is like one in 1,000 rolls. And you found yours in just 80 rolls. Report this Post to the Staff

Rollhunter1994 Valued Member United States 195 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 9:48 pm Could you post a pic of the proof nickel you found? Report this Post to the Staff
TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 10:06 pm 2 1950 D nickels. Whoa! That is even better and harder to find than the Buff and V nickel you found! Look at the size of the S on your 1941 S nickels. The large variety is worth a pretty good premium over the small S, and your others are War Nickels that are 35% silver. I would go back to that bank and buy every box and roll they have! Report this Post to the Staff
coincollectingkid Valued Member United States 323 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 10:11 pm ok wheezy and i'll post the pic of the proof in a sec.... Edited by coincollectingkid 07/01/2009 10:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 11:03 pm Boy o boy, you sure take nice pictures. I think the 1994 S is a better year for recent proofs and is worth a tad more. Looks like you found it soon enough, doesn't look too badly used at all. Report this Post to the Staff

coincollectingkid Valued Member United States 323 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 11:19 pm Thanks for all the great feedback guys, and I'm only thirteen so I guess I get a little bet more excited than most adults. and probably part of the reason I take good pictures is because I use my dad's canon rebel slr haha Report this Post to the Staff
TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 07/01/2009 11:29 pm Go grab that Canon and shoot a couple images of those 1950 D nickels please! Report this Post to the Staff
