You never forget your first War Nickel! They usually jump out at you.

That's awesome, congrats!  I remember when I found my first War Nickel in a roll, it was a great feeling!

I just found my first two War Nickels a few days ago myself. It's always satisfying to find coins like those just by looking rather than buying them!

Congratulations! The 60, 63 and 68-D are spenders, but I'd keep the rest.

 I love finding those ! They are nice little treasures for anyone at anytime ! My dad gave me a batch of these that he saved when he was a kid, and I've been adding to the batch ever since ! Gratz ! (Maybe you should use this as incentive to start a Jefferson nickel Set ! -- you have your first Jeffersons to put in there already now !)

Awesome find on the Nickel! I still find quite a bit of silver in my change. Got a Quarter a couple weeks ago. Could hear it in the change drawer as the convenience store attendant was reaching in to grab my change.......keep my fingers crossed she would grab it. Low and behold, I saw it drop in my hand as she counted out the change :) Always fun to find some silver!

You're lucky to still be finding silver in change! Never am I so lucky! A few times at the bank I asked if they had halves. The teller had $6.00 I took them and 11 were 40%! I guess they didn't know of the value.
