Were these customer wrapped rolls or machine wrapped rolls? With 56 silver coins were spread out over 43 rolls, it seems almost deliberate to put one or two in each roll! Awesome find. Check the 39s for DDR and mintmarks!

Do you look for errors/varieties? Have you found any Hennings?


I bet this is because of a collection dump. If you still have that box, I'd go through again and look for error and varieties if you didn't do that carefully the first time!
Rest in Peace

I am mostly through a CRW box right now. Manoy banks put rolls that people bring in boxes.

Must be at least 10 years ago and it had to be somebody's hoard.

I would be zipping back to that bank to buy every nickel I could get my hands on. Congratulations.

56 War Nickels in one box... that's nuts! It usually takes me about 150,000 coins to find that many... in other words, you found them at about a 75x better rate than my "normal" find rate... Congrats!
