<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 145519, member: 4552"]You may want to go to a bank and ask if they have a bag of nickels. Some have $200 bags of nickels and you may be suprized how many you find in there. Jefferson nickels have never been a really biggy for collectors so there are a lot of great ones around. As to what they will be worth in the future, no one knows. An example of stupid saving the wrong thing I remember back in the late 70's when eveyone ran out and collected the Bicentennial Quarters. One friend of mine had virtually thousands of dollars worth of almost new ones. I too got sucked into saving a pile of the things. After almost 30 years I find they are worth about .25 each so to the bank they went. Same with that friend of mine. If we would have invested in buggy whips for horse drawn buggies we would have made out better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
