I'm pretty sure this is my best CRH day ever!

To start Mint State 1964 and 1974-D coins


Then 6 pre 1950's coins including all mint marks of the 1941 nickels


And here is the kicker a 1943-P war nickel and a 1928 (witch I could barley see) buffalo nickel that someone had taped up!!!! :o :D

After I nic-a-dated the nickel I found out it was a 1913! :)

Nickel Box #35

99.9% nickel pre-1982: 157 (7.85%)
Pre-1963 Canadian nickels: 11
King George V nickels: 3 (1927, 1929x2)

Not a bad box overall. A lot of variety with the older coins, which is always nice, and a decent percentage of 99.9% nickel nickels. My percentage has been decreasing lately it seems, so about 8% is nice. I will leave a picture and video below if you would like to see the results that way. Also, great to see you still going strong mtal! You have done an amazing job at accumulating those pre-1982 nickels! :clap:

Little bit disappointing with the 99.9% nickel percentage, but it is better than nothing. Hopefully the next box is a little better. Pictures and a video of the results are below.

I was only able to grab $40 worth of nickels the other day. The bank told me that they were low on coins since it was the holiday season. That was fine with me and I was happy to take what I could get. This was a great box in relation to the 99.9% nickel nickels as I almost hit the key 10% mark, which is where the boxes were consistently about 3 years ago. Although, no real older/rare coins other than 7 1964 "Young Queens." Video below if anyone would enjoy the results that way. Hope all of your hunts are going great!

Great finds on that $1,000 worth of nickels there cwgil!

Nickel Box #38

This was a very fun box. We were fortunate to grab four more King George V nickels and we have continued to be fortunate in regards to the Canadian wartime chrome-plated steel nickels. Pictures and a video below if you would like to see the results that way. Hope you guys are having a lot of fun in your searches and getting some great finds along the way! :thumbup:
