<p>[QUOTE=&quot;medoraman, post: 1791345, member: 26302&quot;]Because of the &quot;racketeer nickel&quot; story. Newspapers were even worst back then, (hard to believe I know), and many led people to believe ANY no cents nickel was worth $5. So you had millions of people checking nickels and pulling every no cents nickel out to save. Its a classic case, since the with cents nickel actually has higher mintage in 1883, yet is MUCH rarer in high grades today. Classic survivorship bias case.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
