Out of $ 20 in nickels yesterday, I found a 1941, and 3 1946's, all in average circulated condition. In the last roll however, a really nice...
Really lousy luck with the nickels today. My usual $ 20 worth only yielded 1 keeper, and a marginal keeper at that: 1953 D :( Maybe I'll have...
There must be untold billions of these things stashed away in jars, drawers, coffee cans, etc. If the govt. stopped making them, wouldn't these...
I remember collecting presidential tokens with a fill-up of gas (Shell, I think). These coins remind me of them, just as poorly designed...
I wish there was a feature with ebay where you could post a comment next to an item like this. Mine would say "are you kidding ?!", or "get real"...
Still combing thru those nickels......Today's catch: 1946 D (2) 1948 D 1948 S :) 1953 D UK 20 pence :confused:
I am probably alone on this, but I think some darkness can enhance the appearance of buffalos, it highlights the details, especially one in such...
Nope, I think that's the real mccoy.....but what's that slot-like line above Abe's head ?
I looked through $ 40 in nickels today: 1938 (jeff) 1940 1942 1948 D 1949 D 1955 D Canada Beaver nickel (an attractive coin, imho)

I agree with most of these posts. Maybe it is part nostalgia, but US coin designs have gone downhill since actual persons were portrayed. The...
Wow...that buffalo has been around some, nice find though.
From $ 20 in nickels today: 1939 2 1940 1 1941 1 1945 s 1 :smile 1947 1 1953 d 1 Probably all these...
Yeah, I guess that makes sense, Maybe I'll find one someday....Thanks !
Nickel rolls Found a 1947-s and a 1949 plain (nickels) today, both in fine (or thereabouts). btw...how does a proof coin get into circulation ???...
nickel rolls Another $20 in nickels from the bank yesterday. A little better luck than last week. 1940 (2) 1945 p 1946...
I have watched my change since the 60's.....never found an Indian. I did find 2, however, on the ground (without a detector). A 1902, and a...
nickels I checked 10 rolls of nickels today. Not much to brag about. :cool: 1954 p-d-s 1959 Panama 5 c. piece
Yes, I do.....both the front and back are my favorite designs for a contemporary coin. Just wish they would be actually used in circulation.
I don't get it. Why is the mint is spending all this effort tinkering with the designs (presidents, corn planting, etc) of a coin that...
