Like most everyone else, I now only have the 1950D left for my Jefferson collection. Very nice! Do not worry, the last one will come in time. You will either find it or give in and buy it. There is no shame in the latter. Coin Collector Since 1978 Avatar Old Avatar 7070 Eisenhower Australia Canada World CCF Members on eBay CCF eBay Search Engine Report this Post to the Staff
matthewvincent Pillar of the Community United States 3486 Posts	Posted 03/20/2012 4:34 pm The thing that I most admire, Kefiroth, is your excitement about the find and not about the money that you could sell them for. I would guess that every roll searcher out there is quite envious of you. As to what to do with the dateless examples? Well, the CCF will be present at a major coin show this August, if I remember correctly. I sure that another member can fill you in on the details. A donation to this effort, giving out coins to kids, might solve your "happy" problem. After all, you got them at face value. And you would doing a great service to the coin collecting family. Give it some thought. Edit: I just found the link: https://goccf.com/t/111757 Edited by matthewvincent 03/20/2012 4:58 pm Report this Post to the Staff

MorganDude26 Valued Member United States 206 Posts	Posted 03/22/2012 9:07 pm Assuming in all G-4 condition, from 1913-1920 I totaled them up (Using This Chart:http://values.hobbizine.com/buffalo-nickels.html), and it totaled at $483.10! I would predict about a 1500-2000 dollar gain! What a great deal for $51.50! Report this Post to the Staff

Kefiroth Pillar of the Community United States 1431 Posts	Posted 03/28/2012 9:23 pm Hello again everyone. It's been a while and I had almost forgotten about this topic! First off, thanks again for all the help and congrats. You guys are terrific. jbuck, Thanks, and I'm definitely going to keep searching for that '50D until I find it. matthewvincent, that sounds like a great idea! As I now have hundreds of dateless buffs that I really have no use for, I'd be glad to chip in a few rolls of them for that effort. MorganDude, sadly I've had no further luck with the subsequent boxes I searched from that branch. However this wasn't the first extraordinary box of coins I've had from this branch, and I'm confident that it won't be the last. briank, glad that I could help. Petersun, I'm not really sure if I should name it or not, but I will say that it's a small, independently owned, regional bank chain based here in the Dallas/Northeast Texas area. I really wish I had some kind of camera that I could take proper photographs of these coins with. Report this Post to the Staff
angel2004 Pillar of the Community United States 2168 Posts	Posted 03/28/2012 10:02 pm That's a great box. With all those old nickels where there any War Nickels? Just wondered Report this Post to the Staff

Petersun Pillar of the Community Canada 1700 Posts	Posted 03/30/2012 11:12 pm Are all of them worn through badly or are there some EF45+? Report this Post to the Staff
Kefiroth Pillar of the Community United States 1431 Posts	Posted 03/31/2012 7:44 pm Quote: Are all of them worn through badly or are there some EF45+? Sadly, the ones that aren't dateless range in grade from AG to VG, with a few Fine and only one (a 1926) that I would grade Very Fine. Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 03/31/2012 8:59 pm Wouldn't it be fun to 'salt' a few rolls with semi collector's coins, for the next roll hunter to find? Maybe a few really worn out Liberty Heads? Report this Post to the Staff
