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

just did my first nickel box of the year, and it was awesome!!

It started off with some good older coins in the first few rolls. 3 keepers in 2 rolls. I ended up keeping about 25 pre 60s, with lots of s mints. Considering 25% of the box was brand new, it was great to find all of the old coins mixed in between.

There was 46s, 47s x2, 48s. 54s x2. Heck, there was even a 1950!

But what I could not believe was when I found my first 1939s!!











wasnt I just commenting on 39s recently ;-)

woohoo!!

Now I need the 38d, 38s, and 45d.

Excellent!

2 bags yielded 2 wars, 3 dated buffs, an ndb buff, 2+ rolls of pre-60, ton of foreign coins - best were 1966 Trinidad and Tobago 25 cent piece and a 1942 Columbia 5 centavos.

Picked up first box of year. I usually only get rolls for nickels (or at least that was 2014 me). 3rd roll was no date buffalo, found a partial date 1929 around half way mark. No silver and pre- 60 count isn't high so far. Still got 15 rolls to go through tomorrow.
Highlights of first 35 rolls:
2 buffalo
3 2009- 2 d and 1 p
2 hole fillers- 1956 and 1959
2002 50 francs union monetaire ouest africaine
2003 50 pesos republica de Columbia
2 of my favorite Bermuda 5 cents with Fish

I searched 80 or so boxes 2 years ago and never found a V nickel. Well yesterday I picked up one box of nickels and what do you know I got a 1906 (P)

Nice one Carloscoria

I am sure I seen the 49-s and 52. I just did not have them in my checklist of the nickels I needed until about last month when I noticed the mistake I made.
