toast Pillar of the Community Australia 1092 Posts	Posted 05/07/2006 6:22 pm 38 nickels have a face value of $1.90 Getting them for $1.50 is a bargain. They are a great design even in about good condition and could be given to a child to spark an interest in collecting. Report this Post to the Staff

grovey Valued Member United States 440 Posts	Posted 05/08/2006 12:57 am They also make great tips when you out to eat. leave 1 or 2 along with your tip. Chances are they will get saved and passed along to a kid that becomes interested in the hobby...and the cycle continues.... Report this Post to the Staff
Mike Rest in Peace United States 2884 Posts	Posted 05/08/2006 01:12 am I think you did well. To echo others, I put these back into circulation or give them to "budding" collectors. Many years ago(35-40)when some were still floating around in circulation I would "dip" the date area in ketchup for a few hours propped up on its edge and sometimes could faintly make out the date! Have fun with them. Mike Report this Post to the Staff
