[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 26114558, member: 4626"]Nickel box #25: Highlight was finding a 1998 Bahamas 5 cents; this is a type I didn't have yet with the Coat of Arms of the Bahamas on the obverse, instead of Queen Elizabeth II (still with the distinctive pineapple on the reverse). Other finds worth mentioning: Found a really nice nearly pristine 1970-D. Nothing special about this date in particular but it was in amazing condition so just felt worth saving. Found a few other 1970-D's in pretty nice condition too; my theory is these might be the result of people breaking open 1970-D uncirculated sets to get the half dollars that only show up there, and they figured just spend the nickels that came with them. No proof of this, but seems like a plausible explanation. Found a 1942-D: already have one, but it was hard to find the first time so it feels like at least a semi-key in my book. So holding onto that. Also another 1943-P silver war nickel! And a 1948-S semi-key date. Other pre-1960 finds: 1941 x2 1941-D x2 1947 x3 1949-D 1953-S 1954-D 1956 1956-D 1957-D x3 1958 1958-D 1959-D x3 Search continues![/QUOTE]
