gidjit Pillar of the Community Canada 1980 Posts	Posted 11/28/2016 8:59 pm i went to my usual bank to pick up some more pennies when the teller saw me she flagged me over to ask of I wanted a bag of "old coins" turned out she had put aside just under $100 worth of nickle dollars and 50c, I bought them to keep the teller interested in getting me more old coins but anyway there were 26 1974 and of those I found these 2 doubled yokes when I looked in the book they I was surprised of the value! are they really this scarce? or did I get lucky? I never really was into searching nickle $1 and 50c but maybe I will more often Report this Post to the Staff
