Rackster - Great finds with box #12, however you may have found the holy grail with box #13, just waiting for the Shield picture. Hope the good streak continues for you.

Done...but still need to tally the Box #13 results. But here is the cream -

9 V Nickels
26 Buffalo Nickels(5 dateless, one with a D Mintmark)

Several are upgrades to my Buffalo nickel folder; 21/65 circulation finds to this point (I've found a total of 64)

I don't have a Barber (V) Nickel album, but I'm at 13/33 circulation finds to this point (I've found a total of 20)

I'm wondering, what ever happened to the 1938 buffalos? I know they exist, but I've never heard of someone finding them Coin Roll Hunting!

Thank you everyone! I wish everyone at least a box like this one every year. This was my second excellent box and box 12 was rather decent given the 7 War Nickels. Good fortune for a change!

OK, Box #13 results

(9) V-Nickels
(26) Buffalo nickels - 1935D, 1936S, (2) 1918
(1) 30s - 1939
(13) 40s - 41D, 45P, 48S
(11) 50s - 51D
(3) 60s - 67 AU+
(2) 70s-10s - 2009D
(4) Foreign - 1966 Peseta AU
(17) Error/Variety specimens - 1963 w/moderate lamination

I was able to fill another hole for my 2015 project, so down to 14 specimens left. While light on the Jeffersons, everything else was record setting for me. I never took more than a single V on any other CRH event, tied my best at 26 Buffalos (both this year I think). I pickled the 5 dateless Buffalo; 1914, 1915, 1916, 1928D. One more pickling at the moment as thus far, no date revealed.

I haven't found a Peseta before and this one is in great shape. I'll need to do some research on that coin as it's a bit of a mystery. Interesting to find these in MWRs from a box; more likely to be found in CWRs. So anything is possible.

OK, the pic's -

Thanks Jon! After three solid boxes of 2014s and 2015s I got redemption boxes. Amen to that!

A link to the Pesata I found: http://www.silveragecoins.com/en/de...hp?item=2790

Common coin but given the condition, minor premium to the right collector.
