Tonight's box was a dump box. I found 9 buffalos including a 1935d, 1927p, and 7 undated many in very bad condition. I also found an oriental coin which I saved for my son.

I haven't seen a buffalo in a few months - rather odd. I'd take dateless just to get that stink off.

Thanks jbuck.
No pics Rackster. I'd say the 26 is G4 at best.
I have the dateless soaking in some vinegar to see what pops out.
I've done $1,000 worth of nickels so far this year and have only come up with 5 Wars and 5 Buffs.

Hi furry - seems like normal numbers for buffalos but maybe low on the wartime silver. But I haven't landed any buffalos probably since late fall/early winter, or around 8 boxes. Just the luck of the draw I suppose. No real complaints though.

Yeah the Buffs are about average for me but the Wars are low. 3 of the 5 were in one bag. It's been pretty sparse.

Most of 2 200$ bags completed this morning.

Found 5 wars, 1927 and 1937 buffs, and a really nice 1949 Canadian nickel.

Slightly below average number of pre60 were kept. Slowly drying up

CoinCbass - Where do you get your bags if you don't mind my asking? My CU just told me today that they will no longer be able to supply me with boxes or bags of coins. I just lost all of my supply. Trying to figure out what to do.

One of the large regional banks - some of the branches have coin machines.

I get all I want in any denomination.

Awesome box bish! I had my first box without a War Nickel today. About 16 pre-1960's as usual. I did find my first 1954 s, so that was cool. Now I'm down to the <25mil mintage copper nickel issues + all non-P wars after 4 boxes.

2/15 results

2500 searched
30s - 3 (1939, one VF)
40s - 13 (41S small)
50s - 15 (50, 51)
60s> - 11 (AU/AU+)
2009 - 3
Foreign - 8 (5 Canadian, 20 Pense, 20 Singapore, 1 other)
Variety/Error - 1964 DDR

Nothing too particularly exciting. Picked up another 6 for the 2015 project, but I suspect things will be slowing down now that I have most of the easy/easier coins filled in.
