How often do these pop up coin roll hunting? I know it isn't a grade worthy coin, but still a cool find in a loomis roll of nickels.

Now that is a very rare find crh! The coin itself is not that rare, but it is a tough variety with the rays! At tops a AG-3 to me...

I agree, VERY nice find! Not a rare coin, but just a rare find in circulation.

Amazing circulation find!! Something from the 19th century with a date is a rare coin in circulation. Well done!

Perhaps a collector has put a cull back into circulation.
I do that sort of thing sometimes, myself.

As a collector, I may have a much better example, so why not give an avid CRH'er a smile?

Outstanding CRH find.

I searched 389,000 nickels to complete my CRH set and never came across even one Shield coin.
Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art

I have seen V nickels but never found one. When I seen this I was a little thrown off. Seeing it being a Shield nickel was better to me than a V.... for now.

Cool! (One question: What is a "loomis roll?")
