<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 2564557, member: 27832&quot;]There are probably people who would pay more than face value for many of these bags or buckets, but not by much, and I don&#039;t know how you could (a) find them and (b) get the coins to them without spending more than you&#039;d gain.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you put some of these bags on eBay, you might find people willing to pay more than face, but probably not enough more to cover 10% auction fees, 3% PayPal fees, and shipping. (Possible exception: the &quot;gold plated american history coins&quot; -- gold-plated stuff does sometimes sell on eBay, even though most collectors turn up their noses at it.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Do at least check the bag of &quot;nickels 1942 and newer&quot; for silver-containing &quot;war nickels&quot;. They&#039;re the ones dated from 1942 to 1945 with a large letter above Monticello&#039;s dome on the reverse. They tend to be a different color from the rest, so they can be fairly easy to spot. They&#039;re worth maybe a dollar each.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
