I haven't searched nickels in a few months so I got two boxes Friday. One was customer rolled and was from String. The customer rolls were pretty bad, nothing special, but, the bank rolls were great. Got several 40-50's, two 43P's and my first ever buffalo, well a whole herd. Nine dateless, one S mint mark (no date), 1 mint mark I cant quiet make out. 1-1926,1-1936, 1-1927, 1-1925, 1-1935 and two with dates I can't make out. Nothing to yell about, but to finally find a buffalo after all the boxes I have searched in the past, I am pretty pleased.

Congrats! 'm really surprised, I didn't think there were many of those left floating around, rarer than say finding old mercs. Great find...

I switched from pennies to nickels a couple weeks ago. I haven't searched them before. I had been getting an average one War Nickel per box. I thought I was doing good when I found two Buffalos in my 5th box, but no War Nickels yet in this box. I still have 8 rolls left to look through. Nice find!

That is amazing! Great find in the rolls. I don't have the time, but wish I did.
