So after 26 1/2 boxes (1325 rolls) (53,000 nickels) I have 6 holes left to fill. Got some hard ones out of the way but I have some pretty tough ones coming up. Need: 1938 d 1939 d 1942 p silver 1950 d 1953 s 1955 I'm surprised about the 1953 s not being found yet. Where I live I get my fair share of s mint coins. 14 out of my 25 War Nickels are s mint. And I have 3 of the 1944 s War Nickel. I think the next hole I will fill is that 1953 s. Edited by murrellington

I don't always post when I have a bad box - so don't think this box is average. It was the best I've ever had. 1920-S buffalo (AG-3) 1938 (nice coin!, unsure of grade) 1943-P (silver) 1971-S (proof) 1998-S (proof - same roll as the 1971-S) 37 other pre-1960.         |

1 box + $16 cwr's = nothing jus a Au 39 it was it ! 2nd box skunk very odd for me here ! I about 15 pre 55 but I ll dump it all because I have enough and there is someone who may need it ! Ops !... As I was preparing my rejects to dump tomorrow look what I found ..   Didnt search nickels for wille and forget the old proofs lack of cameo and no S mm because the proof sets of 65,66 and 67 were minted in philly just to give you guys hands up in case you guys also forget lol ..i think it goes to 2x2 !.

New box: 1936-D Buffalo (first with a clear date in a LONG time) 1939 x 2 1941 x 5 1943-P silver 1946 x 2 1947 1947-D 1948 x 2 1952 1953 x 2 1953-D 1954-D x 3 (one is AU/BU) 1957-D 1958-D 1960 BU (Gold toned, but no steps; probably the jetsam of a collection upgrade) 1963 BU (In the same roll, again probably the same) 1964 AU 2 Canadians: 1989, 1999 That makes for about 0.8 buffalos per box and 0.6 silvers per box. Also, till finds from my work: 2005-P Ocean nickel with probable strike-through error (legend and date are missing from coin) And this baby:   |

nice 1923 s!!
And you'll get a 2009 p eventually. I did about 23 boxes and had over 150 2009d and not a single 2009 p. so I bought 2 boxes from the east and I still didn't get one. I kind of gave up and said one will come to me. and then I got one in 3 boxes in a row so I have 3 now.
