Ah! I'm glad you asked! A fish nickel is a nickel from the bahamas that has some type of fish on it. In 21 boxes I think I've found 4 or 5. They seem to be pretty common. They are a favorite of Xaiver of Green.

Oh, I have a couple of those. I like their starfish pennies too. I'm using them as "pirate booty" for a treasure chest I got for my little niece's birthday.

Out of $100 in nickels ($96 CWR and $4 bank-wrapped), I found the following: *One War Nickel, a 1942-S. *29 Early Jeffersons (oldest was 1940). *4 Canadians. *An East Caribbean States two-cent coin. I think I may do a box next time; I seem to find more War Nickels and Buffalo nickels in one of those compared to customer rolls.

Went through a box late last night. Was really hoping to find some silver - but no luck there.
Finally, with just 4 rolls left - out popped a 1901 Liberty. G4 at best - but if I look that good when I'm 110 I'll be pretty happy.
