I've seen a grand total of 3 2009-D nickels and 4 2009-D dimes in circulation. I got my 2009-P nickel and dime for my albums off ebay. I see 2009 cents fairly regularly, but even 2009 quarters are pretty darn scarce in circulation around here (Dallas-Fort Worth). |

If you seach "enough" Nickels.....you can find a couple rolls worth of the 2009 P & D's........I'm not talking a couple few boxes though, I'm talking 15 to 25 boxes over 6 months or so. They'll turn up then. You'll also score other nice little keepers along the way too ! I see you went through "9 boxes"......should have turned up some !?!....you need to try different banks ! String & Sons (Fed Resv.) were the best for me. But Brinks turned up some too.......but yeah, just keep trying different places and different wrapping companies. You don't want to keep searching THE SAME NICKELS OVER AND OVER AGAIN !! .......  And that happens more often than you might think ! ...  Now, I don't even save the '09 D Nickels unless they're BU. Which they usually aren't. So I end up throwing back most of them now. I've got my rolls put away that I wanted to. The albums are taken care of. The circualation folders are filled. And they're not THAT VALUABLE to save EVERY SINGLE ONE you come across anyway. I don't want to end up with 75 coin tubes of 2009 P & D Nickels...... what's the point ? .......  Edited by eaglefoot

I was one of the first to establish a Puerto Rico connection for the 2009 P nickels rolls. They sold them to me at face, I just paid shipping. If one of the members here hadn't divulged his source in Coin World, he'd still have a monopoly and they might still be selling for $50 a nickel. |

For the first 3 or 4 months the only place to get these nickels was PR. The guy that got them first was in the army in Germany, and his dad lived in PR, and he shipped them to him. Then some showed up in Texas. I don't know if Texas coins were from people buying PR rolls, and breaking them open and selling individuals. The next state with a major ebay seller was Fla., makes sense across the water is PR. I got mine by phoning PR and getting nowhere for about 35 phone calls (most prompts are in Espanol ). Finally got a lead and they said how many rolls do you want?  Edited by Neil

Neil, so was your 36 phone calls to all banks in PR or PR coin dealers? I have not seen These 2009 P nickels come in NF String & Sons paper (Fed Resv.) rolls, except for one ebay seller  that I am almost sure HE rolled them up after buying the NF String & Sons paper.  Just fyi... you can buy NF String & Sons paper for all coins and 'Roll-Your-Own'  https://secure3.nfdc.net/nfstring/p...Selected=129Edited by Penny4Me

WOW = the 2009 P nickels rolls are still holding their value going for $30-$50 for BU un-open bank roll. Most new rolls start out very high priced then fall by 80%, like the First 2009 Log Cabin penny & 2012 Canada penny rolls... These were at $20 roll for first few weeks, but now are $4 roll. I am still thinking there is a very large hoard of 2009 P nickels hidden somewhere  Edited by Penny4Me

I'll bet you're right on the re-roll, only one large volume seller had NF String rolls. All of mine and the very first guy were no name, paper wrapped rolls. As were all of the PR sellers rolls. As I remember the String rolls brought a premium, and showed up way after the fact. My phone calls were to both banks and dealers, about 2/3 of the time the communication was very limited. My source dried up about half a year after the first ones came on the market. I think he realized  it was the golden goose, and he got a PR relative selling them. No need for him to give them to this gringo at face.  |

It may have been 2 yrs ago, but I bought several rolls of 2009 p nickels from a guy in PR off ebay. Theyre in NF string rolls. I bought from 2 sellers. The bulk was from the PR guy. I dont remember where I got the others from. I bought a LOT of rolls. I probably shouldnt risk the 2009 p's emerging from their hiding places and deflating the prices, but to be honest, I'm just too lazy to sell them. That and I kinda dont want to. They might drop to $10/roll, who knows, but I think theres a good chance they'll not go below $20-$30 a roll. Ill check every once in a while and I'll see the BU rolls getting $50+ on the bay. Id heard rumors that many of the 2009 p's never made it from the mint. doesn't make sense to me, so I dunno. Surely someone knows someone that knows someone that knows someone thats cousin's aunt's step-brother works at the mint and can give us the inside scoop. You buys know of a good way to get the inside scoop on all of this? I dont care if it turns out badly for my investment, though id prefer it didnt, I just wanna know what the deal is. I guess it very well could be that there are a bunch of guys like me sitting on a bunch of rolls. Unless I get new info on this or big changes occur in my life, I guess ill wait and sell these at a flea market, coin show, etc as I try to enjoy my retirement in about 20-30 yrs. Edited by pairunoyd

I think that all the stuff about the 2009 Pennies made the entire country start hoarding any coins with 2009 date. I remember at coin shows how many dealers had rolls of anything with 2009 dates and all were sold easily.

2-3 each in change in Buffalo NY over last three years. About the comment much earlier about more wheaties showing up - I would guess in recessionary times, people are hauling out giant jars of stockpiled change and bringing them to coinstar machines. I've been finding War Nickels, silver dimes every couple of weeks without roll searching. The oddest thing: walking up to a teller in my bank for regular banking purposes and seeing a nickel on the floor right in front of the teller window. Picked it up: a War Nickel. Good shape, too. Old change comes out in a recession. |

I keep an eye on ebay prices for the 2009 P nickels and a BU roll just sold for $67.00 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...t_500wt_1287I talked to the seller before it sold, telling them my situation and asking what all they knew about the nickels and they basically knew no more than what we've been guessing. |
