LastGold Valued Member United States 228 Posts	Posted 02/12/2011 8:18 pm Just did my first roll search of Jefferson nickels. Sorted through 5 rolls (200 coins). I am keeping all nickels 61 and earlier (thats where book one ends on Whitman folder), any 2009's and anything 1961 - 1987 in MS w/full steps. Results: Two keepers. One 1961-D, and one 2009-D ! . Nothing else worth anything more than 7.2 cents apiece... Out of 200 coins, (in San Diego), 194 coins were "D" mintmark, 4 were Philadelphia, and 2 were "S" mint. (97% D) Looks like nickels don't circulate nationally any better than cents! On the bright side, when I finally catch a 1950 - maybe that means it will be a 50-D! Report this Post to the Staff

Timmy30 Valued Member United States 155 Posts	Posted 02/12/2011 10:11 pm Out of $20 searched I found a 1957-P Jefferson and that is it! Also, why can't I find any nickels from '61 '62 or '63?

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15696 Posts	Posted 02/13/2011 3:39 pm Quote: found my first 1943d! It took me 98 War Nickels found roll searching to pull this one so it was tough Wow ... Congratulations on that one! I have the statistics (after 238,000 nickels searched)to demonstrate that the 1943-D is the #1 toughest Jefferson to pull from circulation today. Soooo ... I have found 83 War Silver so far ... and still need that darn 43-D. Still need the 38-S as well for a complete roll-found circulation strike set 1938-2010. BTW .... forum member DylansDad is somehow the King of 43-D ... at last count I believe he has roll-found 5 of these! Anyways ... Great Find and best wishes on your 50-D David Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff

Kefiroth Pillar of the Community United States 1431 Posts	Posted 02/15/2011 5:18 pm Very nice finds, Ricardo! I myself had an excellent box today. It was an NF String box I found about 20 older jeffersons including semi-rarities such as the 1948S, 1949S, and 1942D (not silver) I also found a 1997S. My first proof nickel! No War Nickels in this box, but I did find a 1927 Buffalo with corroded looking fields, but a bold date. I'll take a buffalo over any War Nickel, to be honest Report this Post to the Staff

Rsxtacee Pillar of the Community United States 737 Posts	Posted 02/17/2011 5:28 pm Took a roll home from work last night and came away with a 1944s. I'll try and upload pictures when I get home from work. 35% silver correct? Report this Post to the Staff
hockingzig Pillar of the Community United States 1450 Posts	Posted 02/17/2011 11:11 pm Went through 5 rolls or CWR and found a beautiful(ms 62-63?) 1940. I know they're common but a coin 70 years old in that great a condition is rare! It even had 4 or 5 complete steps(with these old eyes and only 10x loupe it's very hard to tell for sure).
