pierrot New Member United States 46 Posts	Posted 09/10/2009 8:21 pm I know that one of anything doesn't make a pattern, but I just went through my first Brinks box earlier this week and it was pretty abysmal. 18 pre-60, one Buffalo. I suppose I'll see if this doesn't happen with my next few Brinks boxes...if it does, then it's back to requesting customer-wrapped rolls again, even if it means getting fewer rolls at a time.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15579 Posts	Posted 09/10/2009 10:00 pm You are tearing it up _22_ ....... I would enjoy seeing a nice summary of your finds thru 1000 rolls. Give us as much detail as you can. Thanks David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
_22_ Valued Member United States 61 Posts	Posted 09/10/2009 11:20 pm CND and XoG, Sorry I never replied to your questions form the previous page. I was out of town over the weekend and just now realized I hadn't read your comments. As for the 1913D Buffalo it is a type-I but I will still happily take it. And the V nickels I would grade at about G-3, they are not in the best condition and heavily worn, but like the Buffalo, I'll take 'em any day! Again I apologize for the delay in my reply. nickelsearcher, I will get those numbers up for you hopefully tomorrow. If not tomorrow, then no later than this weekend. _22_ Edited by _22_ 09/10/2009 11:24 pm Report this Post to the Staff

XavierOfGreen Pillar of the Community United States 2589 Posts	Posted 09/13/2009 5:26 pm nice score on the henning, 39's are much more difficult to find than the 44's. Report this Post to the Staff
TNG Bedrock of the Community United States 10284 Posts	Posted 09/13/2009 10:00 pm Yeah keep on searching for the other Hennings! I think it might be possible to get one for myself if I looked at every circulated 1939 on ebay that has a reverse image, or took a chance on circulated solid 39 rolls. I don't think I'll ever find one in change. With my old eyes though, I still can spot an older nickel at arms length in change making. Report this Post to the Staff
nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15579 Posts	Posted 09/15/2009 8:05 pm I'm back from a 5 day trip ..... catching up .... Thanks _22_ for posting your find data ..... you are on a roll amigo (pun intended). I'll do the math later ..... but for sure you are way ahead of me on both overall find rates and rates for 'special coins' Thanks as well to you CND for continuing to post your finds .... and congratulations again on the 1939 Henning.

hockingzig Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 09/16/2009 4:33 pm Just pulled a 1942 D in vf condition. Only need 5 more to complete my set38S,39D,39S,43D and 44S. I know the final victory is still far away but each one that gets you closer is a small victory that keeps you going. All that I have in my set are from circulation since February 2009. I've really done well when you look at the timeframe! Report this Post to the Staff

hockingzig Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 09/16/2009 8:32 pm Nickelsearcher,what 7 holes do you still have to fill? I have a sneaking hunch I could name you at least 3 of them but I am always curious when several of us are getting close to completion just who needs what. Report this Post to the Staff
