*** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***I am a nickel hoarder, the last box of nickels I got from the bank contained 50 rolls of 2009P. Because of the low mintage I plan on keeping them for a while. I would like to know whether to leave them in the paper bank rapper or to put them in square plastic tubes . Does the paper contain any chemicals that would affect the coins. Thanks, This is my first post.

Personally I'd leave it in the paper.   |

That is the best nickel find I have read on this forum. Those rolls sell for $30+ all day long on ebay. Keep them in the original wrappers at all cost. You can put wrapped rolls in the square tubes and some round tubes.  |

My goodness that is awesome! I'd sell those dab boys. Not too long ago, those were selling for $60 to $70 a roll. People have calmed down a bit on them, but you can still get $30 a roll. That's $1500 for the box. I'm so jealous of that find!

Okay, so exactly how many were minted in comparison to it's 2009-D Brethren? That's amazing, I must have been out of the loop on these because I didn't know they sold for so much.

For that much of a profit, I'd sell them on ebay right away. And that is from someone that never sells coins. |

Using the latest Mint circulating coin production figures for 2009 Jefferson nickels, 39.36 million from Denver and 39.84 million from Philadelphia were struck, for a total of 79.20 million coins. In contrast, 640.6 million nickels were minted in 2008. That is an astonishing 87.6 percent reduction. The last time a U.S. nickel had such a low combined mintage was in 1951. |

True about how much of a decrease of mintage there was in 2009 compared to other years, but 39.84 million is still a lot of nickels. Especially since so many people hoarded these nickels due to low mintage figures. Just my opinion, but I would stay away from investing in these nickels. Personally I think the best "investment" for these 2009 nickels is just to sell them asap and make that extra cash.

Does that mean the 2009-D nickels are ones we should be looking to snag from rolls as well?

The US Mint website currently shows the 2009 circulating coin production figures for the 5 cent coin as 39.84 million "P" & 46.8 mil "D". Wow, what a find. I can't even find any in circulation here in the Florida panhandle.

I have yet to find a 2009 P and we live in the middle of PA. You would have thought we would have before finding a D.

Wow, that's amazing! In all the nickel rolls I've gone through, I've found only one 2009 nickel and that was a D. I live in Pennsylvania and you'd think a 2009P would show up now and then!
Great find and good luck with them!
