Any, nickel or dime. And it's been another 1+ years and still none.
Yup, they're still just not out there. And it is still much worse for some people than others. Out here in Southern California, I find a 2009-D Nickel around every 700 coins. From what I've seen, this is not the norm - most people are lucky to find one every 2,000 to 4,000 coins. And the 2009-P Nickel seems to be a 1 in 7,500 to 1 in 15,000 or so find for most of us - though I've heard people in some parts of Florida have better luck.
The just published 2022
Red Book has finally taken notice of the scarcity and demand for 2009-P and 2009-D nickels, listing an MS-63 at $3, and MS-65 at $5 - for several years, these values were .30 and .70 cents respectively, barely more than the generic .25 and .50 cent values in said grades.
Personally, I have no problem getting $20 + shipping for a roll of XF/AU 2009-D Nickels on
ebay, and I'm sure if I had a roll of circulated 2009-Ps to offer (I've found a total of just 99 examples in over 1.3 million nickels searched in 5+ years), I'd have no problem getting $40 + shipping for a similar XF/AU roll.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!
