    Thought I would post this here when Dak mentioned the nickels section, pretty nice here, lol. I bought $10 of pre 59 nickels the other day just curious what I would find, and I think it was a good search. My finds were:
    a 1937 buffalo
    a 1938 p nickel!
    39 p
    40 D, S
    41 P, D, S
    42 non silver P, D
    43 S!
    46 P, D, S
    47 P, D, S
    48 P, D, S
    49 P, D
    51 P, D
    52 P, D, S
    53 P, D, S
    54 P, D, S
    55 D
    56 P, D,
    57 P, D
    58 P, D
    and a unc. 57D and an unc 59 D and a 57 D in BU. So I think I did pretty good, helped my circulated set of nickels a lot, lol. I alos bought a 50 D in UNC for $15 ( a little up there, I know) but then also a 44 P in BU condition (luster on this baby is gorgeous!) Alos bought three 53 P in Unc condition for $2 a piece. Not a bad day. I'll post pics for y'all if y'all want. Thanks for looking.

    Lol, wish I got them from a bank. Actually got them from a guy online that offered me them, saying he saw them at his coin dealer, and offered them to me for $10. Goes about 10 cents a coin, which isn't to bad, considering all I found, lol.

    I actually only need a few more to finish my set:
    38 D
    38 S
    39 D
    39 S
    All the silver except the 43 S
    49 S
    50 P, S
    51 S
    55 P

    Not bad I would say, a bit to do, but should be easy, I am at the moment only doing a circulated set, later on doing an unc set, and maybe attempt a FS set, lol. But that would be in the DISTANT future, lol. But I think I am doing pretty good.
