TheDanMan Pillar of the Community 527 Posts	Posted 04/06/2012 5:39 pm I put all my pre 1960 nickels back in circulation, except for the 1938P's, 1950P's, and 1955P's. Perhaps when the composition change comes, I'll consider starting again. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

jbuck Moderator United States 188204 Posts	Posted 04/06/2012 5:55 pm If I were actually searching boxes I doubt I would do this, but I currently keep all of my nickels, regardless of date. There are many reasons, but one is to see just how many I can "collect" (hoard) from change. Another reason is so my son will have something to search in the future. I feel that they will not be easy to get by then, whether the cause is composition change or they stop minting them.

unholyroller Pillar of the Community United States 1903 Posts	Posted 04/06/2012 7:18 pm I roll search three denoms.....cents, nickels, and halves. I turn back my "dud" cents and halves but keep ALL my nickels.....I just have a hunch when the composition change comes about there will be a surge in nickel values regardless of age and I want to be ready for it.

mitchhailey Pillar of the Community United States 1150 Posts	Posted 04/06/2012 8:56 pm I kept all the boxes of nickels I searched (re-rolled by hand, placed in .50 Cal. ammo cans). I had too much and I figured it wasn't good for the structural integrity of my home so I turned them in. My dump bank doesn't like me. ;) Report this Post to the Staff
