Searched another brinks box last night ended up with a few finds

(4) 1943P SWN
(1) 2009D
(3) Canadian
(1) 2001 Panama Nickel

and then various other dates which I was looking for. I'm happy finding 1 coin so finding 5 solid keepers is awesome!

I found another War Nickel, a 1943 P.


Quote:
REQUEST: Please include the type of rolls you searched for any given post: For example, are they Customer wrapped rolls (CWR), NF-Srings & Sons (NF), Brinks, etc ...

I think this will help us all find patterns of finds in various rolls.

thanks!


Was this directed towards me or to all members as a whole?

The 1942 P War Nickel was from a customer roll, while the 1937 Buffalo and the 1943 P War Nickel were from those blue & white machine wrapped rolls.

Is it possible that one day this forum will become sticky?

Robbudo,I will list what kinds of rolls I am searching but I will tell you,after 8 years of searching,it is totally the luck of the draw. I have found great things in all kinds of rolls,including CWR's. If you start seeing patterns it will be purely coincidental.

TheDanMan, my request was aimed at everyone on the board.

Hockingzig, I'm a statistician, I have to look for patterns. =)

robbudo,a stastician with a roll searching addiction is probably a near fatal combination. Before long we will see you on milk cartons reported as missing because you will go into seclusion. I had to rertire so I could ramp up my roll searching!

I bought a $100 box of nickels for the first time today. I found way too many 2011 D nickels and no Buffalo or War Nickels. Here are my finds:

1939 P
1940 P
1940 S
1941 P x2
1941 D x2
1946 P x2
1946 D x2
1947 D
1953 P x2
1954 P
1954 D
1957 D x3
1958 D x4
1959 D
1960 P
1960 D x4
1961 D x2
2009 D

1993 Canadian (I threw it back in since it's not 99.9% nickel)

I know that most of you do not keep anything 1960-current (sans 2009) but I like to keep the 1960 and 1961 nickels since those also seem to be getting a bit scarce and they are 51 and 52 years old, respectively. I do not think I will keep any 1962's (especially the D mintmarks) because they minted so many of them. Both 1960 and 1961 no mintmark have a much lower mintage than their Denver counterparts, so I may keep only the ones minted in Philadelphia for the time being.

Just wanted some opinions on this. Don't really know anything about die breaks/cracks, Cud, etc but this caught my eye. Sorry about the picture but the camera on my phone is all I have at the moment. It's a 1946S with what appears to be Cud beginning above the LU in pluribus and then the extension of some sort coming down.

jdbeiber, looks like that could be a lamination, but i'd need to see a close up pic of the area in question. neat find if it is, but it wouldn't add much a premium.

After a quick search of google images that's what it appears to be. Sadly, that's the best picture I can get with it still being in focus.
