Many congratulations! I can't tell you how many thousands of dollars of circulated nickels I've searched and not found a single one.
What nickels have you been searching? I have searched three rolls and found like 5 30/40/50s already.
But how many 1939 D nickels have you found? (my guess is zero) That is what he was responding to......
Very true! I've been cherry picking nickels for about twenty years, and came up with only one 1939-D in that time. I doubt they will be more plentiful anytime in the future.
Yeah it is definitely rare to find them, I would love to find one, that don't sell too high for on eBay considering how rare they are.
Are you referring to the 2009s or the 1939s? By the way I forgot to mention, kimdehart was kind enough to send me a 2009-P nickel, 2009-P dime, and a 2010-P/2010-D Union Shield Penny. Thank you so much!
I have searched through 20 bank rolls of nickels per week for the past three months. I have found common date buffalos, war nickels, and even a 50-D, but not a single 2009-P. I'm really tempted to buy a roll on eBay. It looks like they all were sent to Puerto Rico because that's where all the sellers are located.
Somebody mentioned having a 2009P nickel to mail. If true I need one for my collection. It will be 2016P back as far as I can get. 2009P is the only thing missing.
