qvb are you saying its easy to free the penny and there's no residue. I don't want to go through all the steps as posted above. I did find the report an interesting read. its seems when they started to make major changes to collector coins and mintages. I have only read the 2003 report. I need to read some current ones. What does the fifty cent coin look like. I haven't seen one yet.

For the penny and 50c piece I just removed the capsule from the book, cut the corners of the plastic (make sure to not cut close to the penny), then with my finger nail I was able to separate the bottom and top layer of the capsule. No residue and No boiling required. But based on what SPP said looks like the 5c is different.

These nickels have become quite pricy. Starting at $89-$211 on ebay. Gatewest has 1 for $109, seems like there must be some demand for these coins nowadays. I wonder what changes in perception to make a coin go from little interest to highly desirable. Lets face it, it is the same coin after all. It shows how a coins popularity can change years later.

A nice subset of this nickel would be to have all its different varieties. The circulation, silver proof, report, and the 1 oz silver. All together would make a stunning set.
