Joshu - a Pillar of the Community United States 541 Posts	Posted 01/25/2025 8:42 pm I found 2 proofs today in a box of nickels, 1963 P proof, and a 1988 s. I also found two wartime nickels, one Buffalo nickel, a couple of semi-keys, and one single 2024 nickel in that box. Report this Post to the Staff
Erscolo Valued Member United States 408 Posts	Posted 01/27/2025 11:19 am I have acquired all the proof issues of the Jefferson nickel from 1950 to the present (graded through 1970), but have yet to look at the 1936-1942 issues with any seriousness. Those can get pricey, especially when I remember there are Lincoln Cents, Buffalo nickels, Mercury dimes, Washington quarters and Walking Liberty half dollars in the mix to make the years complete.

Humanist1287 Valued Member United States 287 Posts	Posted 02/04/2025 06:19 am Very nice. I recently received my 1963 proof that I ordered recently from ebay. Looks alright. Little bit more toned than I would like. Though I opted to use a Dansco album with proofs and fill in the Philadelphia spots with proofs, at least the earlier proofs, I may at some point look into a Dansco blank nickel album. This way, I can customize my own collection of nickels, and I can add all proofs that I collect, in whatever order I wish, as well as both the business strike coins of 1965, 1966 and 1967 and the SMS coins. I mean, I both hate and love the fact that the Dansco albums include the "proof only," issues. One for love because I don't have to worry about the really older expensive proofs in a prelabeled slot, and two for hate because if you want to collect some of the older proofs, without using a blank page, you basically have to decide between the business strike and proof. Perhaps I want both. Lol. Edited by Humanist1287 02/04/2025 06:19 am Report this Post to the Staff
