I have a 20 pound bag of Canadian Nickels from years prior to 1965. Where can I sell them? Is anyone familiar with a place on the US West coast that buys nickel by the bag? How much should a bag of that weight go for?
Thanks.

the value depends on the weight of the bag the condition of some coins and the key dates each coin from 1922-1936 in VG8 is worth $5 plus. 1937-1952 in EF 40 are $5-$15. RARE VARIETIES 1953 nsf far $5 EF40 1953 nsf near $450 VF20-$2000 AU 1953 sf near $5 VF20 1953 sf far $350 VF-$750 AU 1954 sf $5 VF20 1954 nsf RARE only 3 known 1951 commem. half moon under 1951 $15 EF40 1951 regular reverse second a in gratia points to denticle $400 VG8-$2500 AU50 1951 [LR] 2nd a in gratia doesn't point to denticle $5 EF40

You might be better off trying to sell them to a Canadian buyer, but something that heavy might be prohibitive with shipping, especially if Canada customs gets sticky and wants to collect duty tax on that. My advice would be to sell them, 10 rolls at time, on ebay...

you should assemble them in to sets missing the key coins I told you about. sell each set for $60 to $80 sell the keys for their trend value and than roll up the rest and sell every thing on ebay and the forum and you can get much more than $120 in total just be patient.

When I buy bulk lots like that, the first thing I do is sort them by the monarch.
1922-1936 George V 1937 1952 George VI 1953 to present Elizabeth II
Depending on what your final ratio or proportions are, should dictate the price you should get.
