johnsolaris Valued Member United States 86 Posts	Posted 01/04/2019 12:35 pm Hi, I have not been here in a while, but had the time yesterday to pick up some nickels at my new bank. The old bank was sold & the new one has been disappointing until now. I found my first 50-D Jefferson nickel. This one has been in circulation for some time & is rather beat up, but at least I now have found one. I have read all the stories about the hoarding to drive up prices, are they true ? I also found a nice 52-S that has not been circulating as much as the 50-D. Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 01/04/2019 12:59 pm Nice finds and congrats. No doubt most of the stories you've read about the '50D are true, a classic case of the bursting bubble that rivals the tulip craze and the Florida real estate mania. to the CCF!

nics-r-good Valued Member United States 59 Posts	Posted 02/02/2019 1:34 pm The 50-D is a great find. I had to give up and buy one to complete my set. The 52-S, IMO is an equally great find. I suppose it's not hard on the west coast, but here on the gulf coast finding a circulated S mintmark is a true rare find. I save any I find in any denomination just cause we never see them!
