_22_ Valued Member United States 61 Posts	Posted 08/30/2009 11:57 am Last night I searched the best box (50 rolls) I've came across so far... I found 20 pre-60 Jefferson nickels, three of which I needed for my circulation collection. 1939S (needed) 1940 1941 1943P (silver) 1947D 1948 (2) 1948D 1948S (needed) 1949D 1950 (needed) 1954D (2) 1955D 1956D (3) 1958 1958D 1959D And now the most exciting part... I found SEVEN Buffalo nickels all in the same box! I had yet to find a single one looking through circulation, but now I have 7 of them! 1919, 1936, and 5 dateless. Regardless of the dates being worn off on most, I still think this is overall a pretty good find Report this Post to the Staff

Gothic Florin Pillar of the Community United States 2541 Posts	Posted 08/30/2009 9:57 pm Did a box of nickels yesterday and had 24 pre-1964. No silver or buffalos though. I did get my first 2009 P though! Report this Post to the Staff

And _22_, a seven Buffalo Box! SUPER! You get a "hot" box like that, and it really makes your adrenaline flow! Edited by copper nickel daddy 08/30/2009 10:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Gothic Florin Pillar of the Community United States 2541 Posts	Posted 08/31/2009 08:58 am I think I need to get a Canada nickel folder. I've found about 7 different dates from domestic rolls so far. I'm doing this with Canadian cents also, and I have about 25 diferent dates including a 1926! Report this Post to the Staff
hockingzig Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 08/31/2009 10:30 am If you are getting a lot of Canadian nickels, remember, 1955-1981 are all nickel. With the price of nickel these days they are worth almost 9 cents apiece in metal value so you may want to "accumulate" them. Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15579 Posts	Posted 08/31/2009 6:37 pm Great news for both '22' and hockingzig ....... you folks are helping us out by reporting your finds. For '22' .... your bank must be placed over an old Buffalo nickel burial site or something ...... you have 11 Buffalos in 2 boxes (8000 coins) ..... I have 8 Buffalo in 70,000 coins! If I were you ..... I'd be buying more boxes. For hockingzig ..... your overall find rate of 1.41% greatly exceeds mine ..... I am at 80,000 coins (2000 rolls) and finding a pre-1960 at 1.263%. I appreciate you posting the detailed find statistics ..... keep it up. For both of you ..... are you having fun yet?
