call me crazy but, I'm still stacking boxes of pre-60's... and .999 when I can get them.

If that is the qualifier, than I am crazy too. :D

I think I might cash in some of my nickel hoard and pay down my mortgage. That 4.5% is looking pretty good right now.

You could do a quick search for war nickels. I heard they average 1-2 per box....

I'm running about 6-10 per $100 box in war nicks on last 10-15 boxes. Still keeping anything 1959 and earlier in a separate box.

Those are incredible returns on a consistent basis. Typical is 1-2, average 1, max 4-5, with more than a few skunks.

My average has also been about 1 war nickel per box.
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).

Please note that ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- sometimes substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) as well.
