BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 4591 Posts	Posted 01/06/2018 8:49 pm The nickel was the workhorse of commerce back then. Horse/streetcars cost a nickel. Lunch at the tavern - a nickel. Beer - a nickel. You get the drift. So instead of going from the roll to your change to your pocket to your change jar to the coinstar to the cash terminal to be re-rolled maybe once or twice a year? It could pass through a dozen hands in one day. Same design used in the roaring 20s, and the depression. So no reason to save them. That's why Buffs are found dateless... -----Burton 50+ year / Life / Emeritus ANA member (joined 12/1/1973) Life member: Numismatics International, CONECA Member: TNA, FtWCC, NETCC, EveryCountry (online) coin club Owned by three cats and a wife of 40+ years (joined 1983) Author: 3rd Edition of the Sample Slabs book, https://www.sampleslabs.info/ Report this Post to the Staff
