mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2955 Posts	Posted 04/16/2023 07:57 am Reminds me of mine I found CRH last year; there is a thread on that one somewhere here. with the above sentiments. PCGS claims only a few hundred are in existence and there seems to be some demand for these. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/16/2023 3:19 pm Damage to a coin could reduce the value up to 90% of what it could have been. So it really lowers the value for these. Report this Post to the Staff
John77 Pillar of the Community United States 2917 Posts	Posted 04/17/2023 08:26 am Thanks, all... Yeah, the damage is unfortunate. I've seen lots of estimates on the mintage - the highest being 60,000, with maybe 1,000 still being in circulation... For those wondering, I've found a total of 424 1939 P nickels since I started my current run of CRH eight years ago.
