AND STILL NO 2009!

Was doing a box of nickels last night and happened accross my second V nickel of the year. The first one was a 1883 no cents. This one is....well quite unreadable. All I can make out is the top of the head, stars on the left side, what appears to be 18 in the date and the bottom of the wreath on the reverse. I tried soaking it in nik-a-date but it is too far gone. Completely rusty and worn down. What could have been...this might have been that 1885 in a previous life. Oh well.

nickelsearcher, common logic determines it is a 189X dated V nickel.

I just had to let out my technical side, okay?

I prefer Brinks (the shrinkwrapped rolls); I seem to hit Warnickels better in those. Besides, I dump all of my searched coins at a bank that uses the paper wrapped rolls (I have been trying to figure out for the longest time what the name of their supplier is; no teller will tell me stating security reasons!). Guess I will have to camp out at one of their branches someday to see what armored car pulls up! I was buying their nickel rolls for a short time, though, because as far as cents were concerned new rolls of 2009's were showing up there, and I was hoping for the possibility of new 2009 nickels. Of all of the Brinks boxes I have ever opened I have NEVER received newly struck coin in them, either cents or nickels!

Another Update! Now THIS was an Update! Not one, but TWO key dates!
