Just opened a roll of nickels and these popped out. If it’s toning it’s damn ugly! What do you make of it?

 

yep. After looking at them it appears to be toning and not schmutz. Some are pink some a little different. All sorts of dates. From a 1952s to a 2018D. Must be a collection simp.

 

I LOVE finding these inrolls! My second one ever

 

Buffalo are always welcome.

 

Buffalos all day buddy! I like those toners some of them are definitely keepers

 

Just finished a box of nickels. Some interesting things. 2 war nickels 1 Buffalo. 1 2004 S Proof peace nickel. 1 1939. 1 1947 S . And 1 toned 1952 S.

 

What a absolutely amazing box. That tone and proof WOW!!!!

 

Excellent haul! That’s a nice full-date 90+ year old Buff!

 

finishing up 1 box and starting another. Nice so far.... 2 war nickels. 1 dateless buffalo 1 1952 S. 1 1954S 1 1969S and a nicely toned 2016P. Also finding quite a few 2019 P with doubling on the date.minor but noteworthy.

 

Man your boxes are killing it!!!!

 

this box just keeps on giving. 6 MORE war nickels 1 1942 S . 3 1943 2 S’s and a P. 2 1944 P. A 1970 S
And a toned 2005.
Still have 14 rolls to go. But I have to take a break!

 

I’m going to experiment on this war nickel. Going to de tarnish it with toothpaste and see how it come out. Results in a few minutes.

 

Here is the result! What do you think? Sure smells minty fresh! Lol

 

I'll occasionally will variety hunt through a bucket of War Nickels at the LCS, and I see many nickels like your minty fresh coin...worth melt at that point. It is amazing how dirty the silver nickels get though. My fingers get dingy fast going through the bucket. And I'm mainly sorting out the XF coins to check.

 

I agree with HeavyMetal, CRH about 2 yrs. Love the Nickels. Will follow this thread

 

Ok. Finished the last 14 rolls. Got 2 more war nickels 1944 P and 1943 S. Plus a 1952 S and a 1970 S! This was a great box with 10 war nickels several old S coins ( and several newer ones). Some nice toners and that Buffalo !!!best box ever for me!

 

Absolutely insane hunt! I would head back to that bank first thing and ask for another box! Maybe you caught the beginning half of a collection dump and the bank has the second half of that dump!

 

Sadly it was their last box . She was hesitant to sell it to me, but she checked her station stock and decided she would sell it to me.

 

Excellent box! Great work!
