Do you think that these would be all of the same minmark, thus potentailly driving up the price (long-term) for that mintmake?
In 1999 (the last year with mintage recorded in my old Red Book) there were more than 1-Billion nickles produced at each mint. Do you really think taking 1/3 of 1% of the production out of circulation will affect the value of the other 99.6%?
Believe it or not Our Police department has received a BOLO (Be on the look out) about any one who enters the local Casinos with large amounts of Nickles. I hope the guy is not that STUPID!
