Visit Brian's Variety Nickels for listings, pictures, and markers. There is a "Best of..." For 1964d if I'm not mistaken. Good luck to you!

Just completed a box today. About 75% CWR rolls and the remainder bank rolls. In addition to a 1945-P War Nickel, found a real nice example of a 1940-P. Picture doesn't do it justice. Amazing how a 76 year old nickel can survive in that condition out in the wild. Here's my pre-1960 finds: 40-P 2 40-D 1 41-P 1 41-D 2 41-S 2 45-P 1 52-D 1 53-P 2 54-D 3 56-P 2 56-D 1 57-D 1 58-D 2 59-P 1 59-D 2 Also found 8 Canadian nickels. One interesting CWR contained 2 dimes (1 US and 1 Canadian) and 3 Lincoln memorial cents.  https://www.coincommunity.com/go/link.asp?target https://www.ebay.com/itm/-/201605190001 target _blank rel nofollow 201605190001 /a .jpg" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'>  https://www.coincommunity.com/go/link.asp?target https://www.ebay.com/itm/-/201605190002 target _blank rel nofollow 201605190002 /a .jpg" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'>  https://www.coincommunity.com/go/link.asp?target https://www.ebay.com/itm/-/201605190003 target _blank rel nofollow 201605190003 /a .jpg" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'>  https://www.coincommunity.com/go/link.asp?target https://www.ebay.com/itm/-/201605190004 target _blank rel nofollow 201605190004 /a .jpg" border="0" style='cursor:default' onClick='doimage(this,event)'>

Last night's box of machine-wrapped Jeffersons yielded one 1938-P and four 1939-P, and 15 from the 40s, but no silver. (That is m uch, much better than what I usually find in a box.) But distributed in the rolls were six really awesome 1959-P coins. It is hard to tell from the photo, but they are darker/toned:

Coins with writing had writing on both sides: FC on Obverse, and E320 on reverse. Any idea what this might mean?

Fun finds indeed dadsoncoinhobby ... welcome to the nickel CRH tread to both you and your son.  I should probably check in here more often ... alas work and life get in the way. I am pleased to report below my own little nickel CRH success story ... I'm now at 346,800 nickels searched and I've done it $20 at a time (10 rolls). Longer time valued members of the CCF know that I maintain OCD-level statistics of my nickel CRH ... LOL ... and I'm planning on a complete 350,000 coin update when I get there. Anyways ... for the first time ever in my $20 roll searching I found 4 War Silver Jefferson. 1942-P, 1943-P, 1943-S and 1945-P I went back to the same bank teller and she was alas on a new box. Great fun CRH for nickels. David
