How many of you collect the Westward journey nickels. They only made so many and I was wondering if they will be a collectable in the years to come. We have several rolls and if nothing else they will buy us a cup of coffee.

Are they mint wrapped rolls or are the bank wrapped rolls?

I keep the ones I find that are in decent shape. I haven't bought any in rolls as of yet myself. I put the ones I do find into plastic coin tubes.

Spider they are just the ones we got as change when they first came out so although they are circs, they are in really good shape.

I have the Westward series book and I'm missing two "P" mint ones. I do like them, but haven't tried to keep any other than that. I think I did order two rolls from somewhere of the last year. U.S. Mint wrapped rolls.....But i'd be curious to see peoples thoughts on the future value of these as well. Circulated and Uncirculated. Maybe i'll start saving all I see if I should be doing that.
Rest in Peace

I have just set them aside whenever I find good examples.

I probably have 100 or so.

I've pulled a few out of circulation and bought two rolls of the bison reverse from the mint. They are still in their mint wrappers ... I wonder if any of those bison are "speared"?

I don't know what the long term collector value is going to be on them, but I have been setting aside everyone I ever came across. I really like the designs, especially the bison.
