jefffeltman New Member United States 9 Posts	Posted 11/08/2012 09:30 am I love to CRH. My budget allows me to play comfortably in the pennies and nickels price range. BUT, what to save? Currently: Anything with an S. This is taking up a good chunk of money as I am finding a good supply. All Wheat/Indian Head/Buffalo Nickels. I have only found one IH and one Buffalo while CRH(but by god did that feel good to pull both of those!!) All 82 and 83 nickels. I don't know why. Anyone have a clue why they book higher than others? I check all coins for key error dates. The 55 DD, Wide AM's, basically whatever the RedBook says is of value. The rare proof I dig up. Anyone think of anything else to look for? I work at a bank and have access to LOADS of change. I just can't hold more than 2-3 hundred dollars worth. Love this sight, everyone is awesome! * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by jefffeltman 11/08/2012 09:34 am Report this Post to the Staff

wilhelm41 Valued Member Germany 138 Posts	Posted 11/08/2012 09:43 am Personally, I would only keep the s mint mark coins if they are in great condition or have an elevated value if you are finding so many. I assume these are coins intended for circulation of course. I would hang on to any proofs you find, unless they are in rough shape. There were no mint sets in 82 and 83. That's why the higher grade coins from those years are worth more. Again, I would only keep those if they are in great condition. Report this Post to the Staff

By the time you've digested the first three items noted above and spent the time on the fourth item, almost all of your many questions will have been answered. Report this Post to the Staff

It's not like you're gonna lose money if you get disinterested or have to sell because you need cash... lol. Edited by FadeToBlack 11/08/2012 12:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff
rachums107 Pillar of the Community United States 3345 Posts	Posted 11/08/2012 3:26 pm Ive been searching for over a year and a half now. Dont keep all S mints. In dimes quarters and halves, yes, keep them all. But only 1960 and under, for nickels and pennies. Throw back your 1982 and 1983 nickels, unless you really want to keep them. they arent really worth much at all. Report this Post to the Staff
