First Nickel hunt since the collection dump find.

Nice on the 1942S. I haven't found too many of those.

K, got through my 2nd box...

Dismal! ....nothing much worth to mention except a 1942-D (non-silver, of course)(and I'm only mentioning THAT, because that was IT !)
Sigh...

You're only as happy as your last good box...

(This week I begin 4 boxes of Cents--hoping for killer finds there !)

I've been wondering- how often do you guys find the early 50s S mints? For 1951, 53 and 54 I get more S than P, but I suppose that may not be the case further East.

Numisma....
Personally, I don't save those years unless in gem condtion, so I couldn't report that accuratly. But off-hand, living in Kansas, and speaking of older coins, I get a good mix of all mints. Newer coins are mostly Denver though.

51-S 0
52-P 10
52-S 1

25 rolls of nickels today produced the following:

Dateless buffalo
1940 X3
1940-D
1941 X2
1941-D
1942 X2 (Non-war nickel)
1946-D
1953
1954
1955-D
1957 X2
1957-D
1958 X2
1959

If I don't sound too excited, it's not because of the results (which are really good for just $50 in nickels). It's because I had to pay an arm and a leg for car registration just because I purchased out of state.

Found a proof today! 2004-S "Louisiana Purchase":

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

This is my 2nd proof find to date. Too bad it is scratched up. Still is exciting, as the box had not much of anything else in it.

So I picked up $50 of customer wrapped rolls today. I had some pretty good finds lately in nickels! So I was super excited to find this 1964P War Nickel. These rolls were obviously someone else dump because no nics before 1960. But take a look at this rare beauty!!
