Quote: I got a 1950-D! Wonderful find Iizzyjo ... and thanks for the photo. You get the dancing fruit for this one ...     Quote: It contained 72 1953 S If these are truly MS coins ... then by all means check them for step detail. The 1953-S Jefferson is perhaps the weakest struck of the lot (some will argue the 54-S is worse) ... and Full Step (FS) examples are truly vaulable. Just to give you a sense of it ... 2010 RedBook price for a 1953-S MS64FS Jefferson is $4400. Check for step detail.  David

Most of the 1953 S nickels that I found were produced with extemely worn dies. Only two had most of the steps present.  I am sure these were from original rolls because I found two roll end coins in the group.

Nice going on the buffalo. Always fun to find...even the dateless ones.

I plowed through a brinks box today.
2 war nicks: 1945P and 1944P. Some common pre-60s as well.
No buffs but I found nine 2009D.
Also oddly enough I found not one, but TWO Singapore 20 cents. Dated 1985 and 1987. I think they're aluminum, but not sure. Wonder how those made it halfway around the world?

I did a box of N.F. String last night. 43-S and 43-D War Nickel - the rarest with only 15 million minted. Oldest was a 1939 Probably 2 dozen pre-1960

Excellent finds on the 43-D and 39-D.  I still need that darn 43-D and after 237,000 nickels searched I say my turn is due soon.  I did manage to score 1 1939-D so far .... another tough circulation roll find. David

The 43d is so hard to find , sometimes we find 2 or 3 doubles of some scarce dates and still no 43d !
