<p>[QUOTE=&quot;NOS, post: 1958211, member: 2098&quot;]I&#039;ve noticed the same thing. I can point out a nickel from the 1940s up until the late 1950s without a problem. Once you get to around 1957 or 1958, they are easily confused with nickels from the early 1960s. All of this likely has to do with the fact the relief was being changed and adjusted on these nickels as every year went by.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Also, I&#039;ve heard Jefferson nickels don&#039;t make for good Hobo nickel-style carving because the metal used to make them isn&#039;t of as high quality as with Buffalo nickels. I was told Jefferson nickels will show pits when you carve them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
