    I saw a thread about 1960 D Bar Nickel. In 50 plus years IMG_0968.JPG IMG_0969.JPG collecting, you learn something new everyday. I looked through 55 loose 60 D nickels. Found 3 Bar Nickels. Eventually I will open 10 rolls put away in previous years.

    Hey, thanks for posting these. I didn't know about the 1960-D Bar 0 or the 1961-D Bar 6. I'll start looking for them!

    They were popular and promoted
    back in the mid-60's as either 'Bar'
    errors, or 'Morse Code Bars'.

    Fun to find, and interesting, but there
    is no collector interest that brings a
    premium for them, as they are still
    easily found in any group of 1960's nickels.

    I understand your response, kind of
    a novelty like Barr Dollars.
