Just FYI - 1964 nickels (and I think dimes and quarters as well) were made for 2 years until 1966

I found one with a 5 year range. China 10 Cash Chongning 1102-1106 Excellent!  Quote: Just FYI - 1964 nickels (and I think dimes and quarters as well) were made for 2 years until 1966 I thought about doing that, or even the other 1964 dated stuff that was minted well into 1966. I also considered the bicentennial quarters and half dollars (not the Ikes, as the year can be determined by the reverse variety). But, the 1914-D.

Alrighty. With one day having passed, we have five entries so far. Although I think I should have clarified my counting method with the challenge coin's years. I just went 1592 minus 1568 to get 24 years. Using that type of calculation, the first year was not counted. The significance of that changes the date-ranges calculated by pepactonius and bd251 (864 minus 840 is 24; 1106 minus 1102 is 4). Rather than altering the rules/points, I will just be calculating all entries that way. The rankings so far:Three points:1) pepactonius: a 24 year range. Two points:2) Crazyb0: a 21 year range (and a 3 year difference). 3) Arkie: an 18 year range (and a 6 year difference). 4) bd251: a 4 year range (and a 20 year difference). One point:5) jbuck: 1 year. It looks like the only thing that will be able to beat pepactonius's coin is an exact match, but we still have two days left, so keep posting your coins!

This is just for fun, but I don't see a rule that says it doesn't count!   This is a copper LMC, so using Joseph's method, I can definitively narrow this down to a 23-year range (1982-1959=23)

Not really tho, I'm no expert on the master dies used, but there were MAJOR noticeable differences that would narrow down to specific times. That's how I know my two tailed sandwich Memorial is pre -1974!

LOL. I knew someone would mention die varieties.  I really don't know and didn't bother researching it. What do you think the date range is, Crazyb0? I'm not going to win anyway.

Eye and ear internal design seem more to 59-67. 1968/69 was a major die reconfiguration so figure that as a center point. Master dies were used from year to year, a mix and match proposition. I know there's a listing about all the differences.
