13 rolls today;

1 roll Unc. 2010's (not wanted)
My very 1st Buffalo (no-date,but acid treated it, 1919-S)
1941 (2)
1946
1953-S
1954-D
69 & 70 S

I hit a Trifecta Box. A War Nickel, a Buffalo, and a V Nickel. All out of the same box.

$100 Brinks box of nickels

25 pre 1960 keepers- possibly my lowest total to date- oldest was 1940 (x4; 2x '40P and 2x '40D; one '40D is AU50 )
3 Canadian ('94, '98, '00)
1 2009D (only my 3rd '09 nickel found so far...)
2 S mints ('53, '54)
1 magicians coin

As mentioned above, one '40D is absolutely beautiful (easily AU50; it still has full steps!!); and I found a '59 that is probably about EF40 (some spotting).

From $30 of CWR- 3-1938D's, 1939, 1939D, @ 25 from the 40 and 50's. Found in one roll a 1938,39,and 40 Canadian nickels, plus 7 other pre 1982 Canadian, and 3 war nickels.

2-Boxes Niks
1-WN

Also found another 1950D in XF condition plus VF-XF 1938 and 38D and a 1951S. They all have a very similar surface and very nice condition which makes me think they were previously collected and dumped.

I have found a number of 50D's in the last year. This is my second nicest.

Last Thursday I was told by a teller in one of my local banks that another teller had taken in some old dimes, but it turned out that a customer had brought in some old nickels. I seldom do nickels but I never pass up an opportunity to sort anything that may be valuable. He only had three rolls left which I bought. They were all 1950s or older ... mostly 1941.

from 3 CWRs I found:

1 buffalo (no date) and 15 war nicks

1 1942-P
3 1942-S
3 1943-P (no DDOs)
3 1943-S
2 1944-P (one with a nicely peeled lam)
1 1944-S
1 1945-D
1 1945-S

Not bad for my first nickel search in about 6 months ... I may just return to doing them.
BTW, this wasn't the same bank or even the same area in which I scored 404 silver dimes on Tuesday
