Great job pancake. I searched a box and the best finds were a 39s in a 40-42 grade and a Bally LeMans Family Fun Center token.

My supply bank is low on coins again. They tell me they have been only able to get about half their orders. It might take me a couple weeks to get more nickels.  |

My bank has a coin shortage also; the tellers gave me 3 rolls last time, which was very nice of them, considering the teller's drawer was basically almost empty, and they have not been able to get coins from the federal reserve for a month they said. I searched the one nickel roll, nothing of note though; I still get coin rolls from the gas station where some friends of mine work; recently got $5 in cents, and a few nickel rolls. I think I found a 1954 nickel in one of those nickel rolls.

This latest "coin shortage" seems to vary bank-to-bank, which makes me quite suspicious... I do business with a couple of the bigger banks - one says there is a coin shortage and the other has yet to make mention of one... so, for the past month plus, I've been buying coin from the branches of the bank where I've had no problems getting coins and dumping them at the bank that says there's a coin shortage. I expect this will work itself out soon.
Bought 5,280 nickels yesterday afternoon (5,000 were from 3 branches of the one big bank) and will post the good finds later this afternoon.

I have not heard of the coin shortage. My bank is getting more rolls than usual.

That's a good ratio. For me 25-28 pre60s is a box. Also nice to have a dated Buffalo nickel. |
