Just did my first roll search of Jefferson nickels. Sorted through 5 rolls (200 coins). I am keeping all nickels 61 and earlier (thats where book one ends on Whitman folder), any 2009's and anything 1961 - 1987 in MS w/full steps.

Results: Two keepers. One 1961-D, and one 2009-D ! . Nothing else worth anything more than 7.2 cents apiece...

Out of 200 coins, (in San Diego), 194 coins were "D" mintmark, 4 were Philadelphia, and 2 were "S" mint. (97% D)

Looks like nickels don't circulate nationally any better than cents! On the bright side, when I finally catch a 1950 - maybe that means it will be a 50-D!

I'm filling the same Whitman 9009 folder .... Jefferson 1938-1961 ... still have two open holes.

Best of luck with your roll searches and look forward to all your future reports.

Out of $20 searched I found a 1957-P Jefferson and that is it!
Also, why can't I find any nickels from '61 '62 or '63?
I have found '39 through '60 (not all mint marks) but cannot
Find the first 3 years of the 60s

found my first 1943d! It took me 98 War Nickels found roll searching to pull this one so it was tough


Wow ... Congratulations on that one!

I have the statistics (after 238,000 nickels searched)to demonstrate that the 1943-D is the #1 toughest Jefferson to pull from circulation today. Soooo ... I have found 83 War Silver so far ... and still need that darn 43-D.

Still need the 38-S as well for a complete roll-found circulation strike set 1938-2010.

BTW .... forum member DylansDad is somehow the King of 43-D ... at last count I believe he has roll-found 5 of these!

Anyways ... Great Find and best wishes on your 50-D

Very nice finds, Ricardo!

I myself had an excellent box today. It was an NF String box

I found about 20 older jeffersons including semi-rarities such as the 1948S, 1949S, and 1942D (not silver)

I also found a 1997S. My first proof nickel!

No War Nickels in this box, but I did find a 1927 Buffalo with corroded looking fields, but a bold date. I'll take a buffalo over any War Nickel, to be honest

Took a roll home from work last night and came away with a 1944s. I'll try and upload pictures when I get home from work. 35% silver correct?

Went through 5 rolls or CWR and found a beautiful(ms 62-63?) 1940. I know they're common but a coin 70 years old in that great a condition is rare! It even had 4 or 5 complete steps(with these old eyes and only 10x loupe it's very hard to tell for sure).

]In the same box of nickels that I found the ms1950D I also found the 1938D so now I ll stop nickel search and fill the few houle s left just changing some doubles key dates tha I found during nickel roll searching ! Think the tough left is the 1943D . My set is made of circulation coins but many you , AU . Took me 1 year of roll searching but I searched so many nickels that I have no idea how many ?
