John77 Pillar of the Community United States 2949 Posts	Posted 09/12/2016 2:44 pm Quote: Wow. I find one every four boxes or so. I have found more silver nickels that 2009 nickels! Very nice. Thanks, aristarchus Quote: That seems odd. I find about 1.199 2009-Ds per box, and one P every 5.84 boxes. I guess out here on the West coast the 2009-Ds are more plentiful (if you want to call it that) than in the rest of the country. I find about 3.5 2009-Ds per box on average. In contrast, I find only about 1 2009-P every 5.5 boxes. I have a feeling that some parts of the country didn't get ANY 2009 nickels distributed to their banks. This could account for the vast differences in scarcity across the country. CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

CoinRumbles Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 09/12/2016 3:40 pm I posted a few weeks ago I picked up 2 boxes of loomis nickels and as I posted a while back one roll was a buffalo ender, well I finally got some time to get through them, and I left the ender till last but the box started off real slow and half way through the box the herd came out of hiding!x12. They are all very worn, under magnification they are all readable except for one - all from 1919-1929. This is by far the most buffs I have ever found at once, actually is more than I have found in the two years I have roll searched. Also in this box was 1-1944P War Nickel.

John77 Pillar of the Community United States 2949 Posts	Posted 09/12/2016 4:23 pm Excellent box, CoinRumbles! Out of curiosity, what is the year of the S-minted coin I saw on the last row?

Coinhunterseth New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 09/12/2016 4:49 pm Excellent box! I always love finding Buffalo nickels. They are much more fun than than War Nickels. A while back I had about half a box with eleven in it. Report this Post to the Staff

John77 Pillar of the Community United States 2949 Posts	Posted 09/13/2016 9:30 pm I again got 23 pre-60s in my box worth of nickels, but this time I did little herding and mining San Francisco style too!

John77 Pillar of the Community United States 2949 Posts	Posted 09/14/2016 11:12 pm Turned up 26 pre-60s in my 49 rolls of nickels today. No silver or Buffalo finds, but I did get a nice EF 51-S and a 38 Philly along with 6 2009-Ds. CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!

CelticKnot Bedrock of the Community United States 12886 Posts	Posted 09/14/2016 11:47 pm I just stopped by the bank today and picked up a box of nickels to search... skunk. all 2016D rolls. Report this Post to the Staff

That's one of the main reasons I don't get boxes... the rare time that I do, I make sure I open it in the bank or have the teller do so before taking it. I was going to get nickels at my normal branch and my teller just had gotten a new box, but about 7-8 rolls into my batch of 25 I noticed all of the rolls she was handing me were brand new. She knows I don't like the newbies... so she took them back and apologized and gave me the remaining 4 rolls left in her bin which weren't new. I went across the street to one of my alternate banks and got the rest of my afternoon rolls (19 of which were CWR) there. The '38 and '51-S were both in those rolls.
