The Goal: 25,000 Rolls Of Nickels (All Searchers Welcome!)

1 bag yielded one War Nickel. a 47D upgrade for me (upgrades are RARE) and another possible upgrade.

Also found 1937 buffalo - 2/3-3/4 horn easily. in very nice shape.

Also yielded slightly above average number of pre-60 keepers.

1 box got me 2 x 45p, and a buff in terrible shape. dont think I will be able to get a date off of it. also a 97s proof.

I finished $120 in MWRs a moment ago...Best bunch for me in awhile:

2 wars
1 buffalo (More rare than hen's teeth in my area!)





Happy hunting all!

Nice berto! I had to take a look at my Buffalos; it seems that over the years, I've found 22 in circulation. Only one D and one S the rest being P. I'd love to find some mint marks on the next few I find!

1 box yielded below average amount of pre-60, no wars, but a pretty good 1937 Buffalo (VG+/F-). Also an AU 1939, but it doesn't beat out the two I have - I was hoping for an S or a D mintmark when I saw how clean the coin was. oh well.

1 box yields 1 war, 2 buffs (37 and 28S), and a 1953 S upgrade.

That's been 1 or more buffs for 4 straight boxes/bags

Did a box a couple of days ago. One dateless buffalo, no silver, a smattering of halfway decent 40's and 50's and these two:





A twenty pence and a twenty rappen in the same box, but different rolls. Since these were bank wrapped I wonder how they got past the machine.

They've been dumped into my foreign jar.

And then there were these. The box apparently had been dropped at some point, but it couldn't have been very old since I found some 2014 P coins in it. But these were six of about ten copper colored coins I ran across. No more than one in a roll and none of them were ends.




Any ideas of the corrosive involved?

Edit: Not important, but has anyone kept track of the number of rolls searched reported in this thread? How close to 25K are we?
