oddly, I just got 2 cents yesterday, so nothing until now, then nickel and cent the same week!
I don't think that certifying the coin will make enough of a difference in sale price to merit the cost of submission. That said, I'd say XF, not AU.
I got a 2008-D Nickel yesterday. It was the first 2008 coin I have yet to receive. We usually have at least cents by now, but I started a thread...
