1. Collect only 1964 Nickels. The more you get out of circulation, the better it is for everyone. 2. Don't collect older Nickels so there are more for me. 3. Don't use the roll searching system, only collect what you find in change so again, more for me. 4. If you find some of the Nickels have an Indian Head on the front, place them back into change. They were intended for Indians only. 5. Nickels with a lady's head on one side and a larg V on the other may be mine. Send all to me. Think I lost them a long time ago.  Mostly already well noted which ones are the ones to collect. You may want to get a Red Book by Whitman Publishing or just constantly use the Numismatic web site.

Forgive me for asking but why are you always so sarcastic on here?

I have an old 1938-1961 Whitman folder that shows the mintage for each nickel underneath its spot. I use this for a reference when roll searching and I only keep any nickel with less 100 million minted.

I just ordered myself a Whitman folder. Thanks for that suggestion.
Once again, thanks everyone for the help. It looks like I will sort all pre '60 nickels, take pictures, and come on here with more questions.

So, my girlfriend found my first Buffalo nickel, today. She was keeping it a secret, and was going to get a book for it to give me as a valentine's day gift. Well, I told her I just ordered a book, and she ended up telling me that was her plan, but with it, this nickel she found. She said she can't read the 19, but she can read the 25. She said it doesn't have a mint mark on the back, but she couldn't take clear enough photos. This was her best attempts  I'm so excited. Out of the very few variations of US currency I've seen online, this is without question, my favorite. My question is, how can I get the rust off of it, without doing any damage?

I believe to clean is a mortal sin, but to dip a venial one. However, dipping can become a mortal sin if one has thoughts of cleaning whilst dipping.
