You are off to a good start. I forget the ratios I had, but I want to say that generally speaking, I found a War nickel every 1.5 boxes and a...
Nickels are a lot of fun!!
As noted, die deterioration and some die/equipment movement. Both DDD and MD present on this coin. But no real doubling. (i.e., not a DDO)....
We all do Joe. Don't feel bad about mixing up the RDV change. I've forgotten a number of details since I stopped the CRH events. Don't use...

What’s curious is that some things we might consider NAV doubling here in the States are considered Varieties in Canada. Some carry a small...
The nickel was trapped between the fixed and rotating drum of a washing machine. The side facing the rotating drum receives the brunt of the...
War Nickels are fun. Usually one in every other box. What else did you find in that nickel box?
They do look like some fine specimens. Try looking online first at what they are selling for. May find a deal there relative to sending them out...
A favorite series when I was a kid. I can hear Shultz now.
Sorry...just noticed the OP is Rick. I don't see the usual thickness of the devices. I have Stages B, C, and D myself. I didn't even know that...
