scurry64 Pillar of the Community United States 900 Posts	Posted 01/25/2015 2:07 pm These 2 nickels were acquired from insurance salvage a couple of years ago. They've been sitting in my closet ever since. I can tell they've been cleaned because of the hairline scratches. My question is should I hang on to them, or should I use them to level my washing machine that has been moving around quite a bit lately?

KevinH Valued Member United States 172 Posts	Posted 01/25/2015 5:58 pm Isn't there a guy on CCF who has a master collection of lowballs? I can't remember his name, but his collection, particularly of commems which should have never seen circulation, is incredible. Maybe you can find out his birthday and surprise him with these!

buddy16cat Pillar of the Community United States 1536 Posts	Posted 01/26/2015 06:00 am I would keep them and like someone said, use something worth 5 cents to level your washing machine. They are still worth a few bucks to someone, even in that low grade. Report this Post to the Staff
