I went to the bank and had asked for some nickel dime penny and quarter roll,s she had all of them but 4 additional nickel rolls she went to a coworker area and grabbed them from her till at the bank I didn’t even realize it said 1959 on the outside until later that evening . Storage if you me a bank vault. Then. Yeah but no these are black beauties.

 

This thread gave me a headache

 

Many YouTube videos are incorrect. The one you saw is totally incorrect. Nickels do not have clad layers. They are made of Cupro-Nickel which is 75% Copper and 25% Nickel. And Black Beauties are not Nickels struck on Copper planchets. They are Cupro-Nickel Planchets that were Improperly Annealed.

 

Good. Please get back to us ASAP when they come back to you.

 

Incorrect but a good thing you are willing to learn.

FYI.. Coins are never printed. They are struck/minted. There are no Dyes used during the minting proccess. They do use Dies though.. Funny.

Don't worry. It takes time to understand all this.

Good luck with your Nickels.
Peace.
