Yinzi50 Pillar of the Community United States 716 Posts	Posted 01/01/2017 03:52 am Happy New Year! My fellow CRHers! In 2016 I've searched 109 boxes of Nickels. I don't count those boxes with brand-new coins (maybe between 10-20). Here are the loots: Liberty: 4 (2 are hole fillers) Buffalo: 50 (18 with no date), 1 hole filler War Nickel: 114; Key and semi-key: 4 (38Sx0, 38Dx2, 39Sx1, 39Dx1, 50Dx0); S-proof: 11 special honors: 55D/S, 37 in MS condition Comparable to my 2014 results: In 2014, I searched 134 boxes Liberty: 6 Buffalo: 58 (27 with no date) War Nickel: 138; Key and semi-key: 5 (38Sx0, 38Dx3, 39Sx1, 39Dx0, 50Dx1); S-proof: 13 special honors: 2x39DDR, 46 Henning Nickel, 13D (T-II AU) My toughest coin is 38S. I wish to find more Buffalo/Liberty hole fillers, 44 Henning, 43 double eye, 54S/D. Edited by Yinzi50 01/01/2017 04:00 am Report this Post to the Staff
