[QUOTE="BostonCoins, post: 1985949, member: 34720"]I am a self confessed pocket change searcher. I've always got my eye open for that wild Wheatie... That roaming Buffalo... or even that occasionally rare and beautiful Silver coin.. From time to time over the past year or so, I've been fooled. Ever drop a handful of change into your pocket, and hear that "sound"? You know the one I'm talking about. The one that makes you stop and go "What was that?".... "That sounded funny". So there I sit... looking through the change to find the source of the sound. At first, I think I'll probably just find a Canadian cent (they make strange sounds too). Once I realize that all I have is US coinage in my hand.. then it's a process of elimination. Time and time again, I've found that the 2013 or 2014 Jefferson Nickels have a very different "sound". They are just standard P series.. nothing special. Anyone else notice this? Anyone know why this sounds different? Did they cheap out on the metal material they are using in them (like the crappy Zincolns)??[/QUOTE]
