I should add that since AU's an XF's are so relatively scarce that these would sell for nearly as much as an unc. Of course, this really...
It is a nice '41. Actually I believe that many of the modern nickels really are scarcer than the older nickels. Roll saving of nickels since...
A lot of it is probably just perception. People think that old coins are desirable and rare so when they see a 1941 nickel they tend to save it...
The best bet has probably always been to save the nicest example of EVERY coin and this has probably been much more true during the last couple of...
It was part of Reagan's cost cutting measures. There was a lot more outcry than anyone could have predicted so they were brought back in '84....

That is a remarkably good price. The date comes fairly nice though and if they had more value there would be more submitted. This coin isn't...
That's a shame. It really is gemmy and these don't come nice often. I fear they are ruined. Zinc is very fragile.
Gee, I hope Coindawg666 didn't feel like a thread killer and give up. :) Come on back.
You know they're going to be common and I know they're going to be commom. But we could both be wrong. The vast majority of these will...
There are probably far fewer of these available right now than 1916-D dimes. Maybe there are even fewer than the 1982-NMM dime. There's no...
If I had a source for 2007 nickel rolls I'd stash some nice ones too.
The last years are rather difficult to find and there are numerous varieties which were made in very large numbers but don't appear in mint sets...
