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!
