<p>[QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 4015952, member: 106826"][USER=110165]@dandan15[/USER] - your LWC count looks pretty average, so your hunts are producing the expected yield. As for IHCs, I have only found 4-5 in a number of years of searching. They look different so folks pluck them out of circulation - even non-collectors. I can't even guess how many cents I've looked at, but a fair number (over a million). Regarding Nickels, this thread will give you a good indication of what you could expect. Silver yields for me was probably one war nickel every two boxes. One Buffalo every 3 boxes. But that was about 3 years ago. I haven't CRHed in that time. So things will change; scarcity due to a number of factors but probably the biggest factor being the huge mintage numbers of the past decade relative to the years past. Since 1964 especially, for Jefferson nickels, the large mintage numbers make the smaller mintage numbers preceding that date appear even scarcer than they actually are. That's not to say that there aren't key dates/mms where mintage figures matter (1950D Jefferson, 1931S LWC). Enjoy the hunts with your son!! Great time together![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
