Yesterday turned up nothing for nickels, but today was good. 1940 and 41, a 1987 20 pence (to add to the two 5p I found in my dimes today), and my first War Nickel find - a 43-S. I'll have pictures up at the end of the week.

Dumped a box of pennies today, so I had extra on hand to pick up nickels and dimes. So out of 15 rolls of nickels searched today, another War Nickel enters my collection - 1945-P. Also pulled out a 1939. I don't think it's a doubled Monticello, though.

Get used to it. I respect your energy and initiative but there is no way you can make a living searching boxes of nickels and pennies.
