Post your nickels

Anyone interested in seeing a 'Buck-five'? (Yeah, I know, I've posted these before.)

"Found in a CoinStar" . . . . . That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Nice Clip @dwhiz

 

This is a luster bomb for a pocket change find.

 

Ok, I'll change things up a little. Y'all are posting some great coins, I'll post some not so great, but realistic (except for the last one, lol)

1866 Shield Nickel with Rays

1937 D - 3 Legged Buffalo


Ok, I know I said realistic, but I did add except for one.

If you haven't figured it out, yet... this is the "not realistic one". This one is FAKE! I certainly wish it wasn't, lol.

 

Here's one of my Nickels....

 

Found in my change today.

 

Then you just gotta have THIS one . . . !

Wild colors on this one , just not too sure if it was messed with ..

 

Recently made a BU War nickel set. I think the Capitol holder cost was more than I paid for each coin individually!

 

The 1945D is nice looking. Send it over to my new thread. "Two Toner Tuesday" when I do it.

 

That is fantastic! I love it! I have a set, but mine are worn very badly, like me. But, I collect circulated coins, and some of mine have really been "circulated", lol. But, I'm still thankful to have them. Thanks for posting yours, they are stunning!

 

Interesting Fun Fact about War Nickels:
War nickels are one of the few U.S. coins that contain manganese, which was added so vending machines could detect them magnetically during WWII when nickel metal was needed for the war effort.
