Last evening I found a 1979 P Wide Rim SBA but in a very unusual locale - a bag of nickels! I have an old sour cream container I use to scoop out the nickels onto the table to search and out of the next to last batch popped an Anthony dollar. To say the least I was surprised! Upon closer inspection today and after comparing it to photos online - it is the wide rim version! How cool is that?! A neat bag made even neater with that find - just had to share! - Scott Report this Post to the Staff

drdave Pillar of the Community United States 721 Posts	Posted 04/08/2011 12:47 pm First time I've heard of an SBA in nickels. Makes sense though. Makes my nickel searching more interesting now. Report this Post to the Staff
