Box #37 down
no silver: thats 37/30 with 30 silver
no buffs
no V's
no proofs

10 canadians- I bet I have the entire set of post 1982 just from circulation now!

Dates:
1942CuNi
1952-S
1947-S
1940-S (small)

Extreme Greaser: missing UNUM, AMER, and VE CENTS-makes the reverse look quite strange

A 1965 that looks like my proof 1957 except they didnt make proofs that year. The strike is very strong but the steps are mostle worn off. Strange coin, not like those 1968-S coins that look really shiny but dont have any steps at all.
The lettering is very strong

MS-66 1990-D FS PL really amazing this coin is 21 years old but it was probably in someones jar.

I figured you guys know I get more keepers than this, I only post the dates I think worth mentioning.
Til next time

Congrats... I am really happy for you and I know the feeling. My Kennedy half collection is down to just a 70D empty hole.
Again Congrats on your milestone

Nice job Ricardo! Although I must say I have like five 1942-D's. Are you going to take a break from Nickel searching? I am not going to quit until I find a half eagle-turns out they are almost exactly the same size as a nickel!

Congrats! I'm surprised '42-D was your last one. I've got a couple I got pretty early on, I didn't realize it was one of the hard dates.

I picked up 3 more boxes of nickels on Friday and had some interesting results:

Box 3 - 23 keepers
9 various 1940's
13 various 1950's
1 War - 1945 D

Box 4 - 26 keepers
9 various 1940's
16 various 1950's
1 War - 1945 S

Box 5 - 47 keepers
2 1939 P
16 various 1940's
15 various 1950's
1 War - 1943 P
12 Buffaloes - 7 no date, 2 1919, 1924, 1925, 1926
1 Canadian 1961

I'm really starting to enjoy searching nickels and loved finding the 12 Buffaloes in one box. I will definitely get a few more boxes this week. Happy searching to all!

Wow! 12 Buffalo in one box. I think three more will classify the find as a herd.
