Nickel Tracking V
Nickel Tracking V
by JadeDragon » Sat Jun 05, 2021 11:19 am
Post your nickel sorting/hoarding activity here. Canadians are generally looking for pure Ni nickels (1981 and older, some exceptions) and Americans are generally looking for silver war nickels and those elusive pure Ni Canadians.

I like this new thread.
Even though I live in the U.S., I prefer Canadian.999 nickels. Digging into my old notes I found that in August, 2014 I posted that I had about 15-20# of .999’s. Within just s few weeks I added 281.5# more, so another 28,150 .999 Canadian nickels.
There were also about 20 lbs. of nickels that had to be weeded out, mostly early 80’s and Tombacs. So the total I looked at was over 30,000 nickels.
It took me THREE FULL DAYS to go through that many nickels.
Included in the haul were:
255 Geo. V’s
1,639 Geo. VI’s
80- 1938
26- 1948
30- 1970
That was a fun purchase to make!

Also, please research covered calls (options) as well.

$60 in nickels... 4 war nickels and 1 barely readable 1923 Buffalo
20 dollars in nickels contained 2 old, almost purple rolls. 1 roll had no coin later than 1970 in it but no war nickels, the other had three war nickels in it.

$200 in nickels; 1 Canada pure nickel. Been a long time since I got a war nickel.
Silver Monometalism is the most permanent and stable form of money the world has seen. Natural law and history prove silver value is best multiplied by gold and best divided by copper. It is only in this counterfeit currency time when the natural law appears suspended.
