<p>[QUOTE="Doug Rogers, post: 1975943, member: 37194"]I think it's more a matter of personal preference more than anything else. Nickels in the 60's and forward are too plentiful for me with few, if any, low mintage years. 1964 nickels are very abundant, almost one in every roll I look through, so what's the point in keeping them unless they are in uncirculated condition unless nickels are only saved for fun? That said, I save 1959 nickels and prior and occasionally put the ones not in really good condition back into circulation. The low mintage year coins and other dates in really good shape are the ones I really concentrate on keeping and of course the hardest to find. I have a lot of 'dry runs' or 'skunk' rolls along the journey but just this week found a 39-D Jeff, a 1934 Buff and a 1934-S War out of about 20 rolls of nickels. I don't do boxes but average about going through 8 rolls of nickels per week, plus a few in the cash register at work.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
