So today I went to the bank to buy some coins and one of the teller said they have some V nickels, I thought he meant the Canadian V nickels and I said I will take then. He then showed me a box and oh boy oh boy just look at these babies:  64 US V nickels!!     Dates are: 1912 D: 5. 1899: 4. 12: 6. 98: 1. 11: 3. 97: 1. 10: 5. 96: 1. 09: 2. 94: 1. 08: 2. 93: 1. 07: 4. 92: 1. 06: 6. 91: 1. 05: 3. 90: 1. 04: 1. 84: 1. 03: 2. 83 No 5 cent: 1. 02: 2. 01: 5. 00: 3. I'd say this qualifies as a find of a century |

I'm jealous! I just received my batch of auction wins, about the same date configurations, but sounds like you got yours for FACE VALUE. WOW INDEED! Did the teller say where they came from? Edited by Crazyb0

Nice haul! You should buy that teller a coffee the next time you are at your bank.
