Well, just doing a calc on coinflation shows that $1 face in nickels is only worth $1.09 in metal value. That is only nine percent over face...
Got a nice 1948-P Lincoln in change today - nice eye appeal XF with good contrasting patina.
And since you got them at face, you've made about 700% profit.
I just got 19 rolls of BWRs of 2011-Ps. I'll probably keep a couple rolls for posterity and return the rest unopened.

Likely a silver proof quarter from a broken up 2001 proof set. Is it mintmarked with a "S"? My local coin shop has proof quarters in their junk...
Well, after $40K in debt to get the Master's. Then working professionally for 9+ years in one's chosen profession and finally get a management...
