Another good box.

I sold a box of 2012d nickles earlier in the year on ebay for $145 plus postage. It sold if I remember right in less than 1 hour, I probably could have gotten more.

First time hunting nickels. Did one box and made these finds:

1939 x3
1940
1941 x3
1942
1942P silver
1946
1946D
1949
1952
1952D
1954
1954D x2
1956D
1957D x2
1959
1959D x2
1968S x2
1969S
1970S x3

Anything stick out that I should check? Not sure of what to look for in nickels. Most of these are G-VF. The 1959 is a nice AU.

It takes people less than 5 boxes to get a 1950 d, or it takes over 150 boxes. lol. Nothing in between.

Congrats Rew on the 50D. I mentioned a few weeks ago that I haven't found the 50D...and I still stand waiting. I have got a couple of 1950 nick's lately, so at least I getting to feel the rush of anticipation. I'm doing probably 4 to 5 boxes a week. I would guess I've gone through 300 boxes at this point. That said, I have found a lot of Liberty V's. Even found 11 in one box, so I can't complain. I know the 50D will hit sooner or later.
