Message:: [QUOTE="Kevin Mader, post: 8198823, member: 106826"]Actually, I think Cents and Nickels are the way to go.  That is, for collectables (old coinage, variety coins, and error coins).  Nickels are probably the most productive, but I haven't CRHed in years.  I just pick through my Pocket Change and post in the Pocket Change Finds thread.  Slower going as you might expect, but still fun. Regarding Jefferson Nickels - I've built 3 sets from the wild doing maybe 20 boxes a year for about 4 years.  But I've found several finds along the way that added to the overall effort.  A 1914 Ducat (gold), a 1939 Henning Nickel, several V Nickels, and several Buffalo Nickels.  I've put a fair dent into building sets for those nickels, especially with the Dateless Buffalo which revealed that there are many key/semi-key nickels in circulation (not picked because they are dateless).  But also a number of Variety and Error nickels, and I've put together most of a Roll Set of Jeffersons by date/mm.  Lots of higher-grade nickels in the mix too.[/QUOTE]
